It is often important for first graders to draw or use pictures to express their ideas and thoughts. Creating a visual display along with their writing will let the teacher know that these students can make the connections between written and visual content. It also allows students to elaborate on the topic. Sometimes, students may be able to express their ideas better in a visual format than a written format. In this quiz, the students will look at the picture and select the best sentence that supports that picture.
