Gallery Walk

 

A gallery walk is a stroll through an artist's work to enjoy and discuss the work's pearls and possibilities. At this time, your net etiquette is extremely important: always watch and listen to the words you type: are they positive even when you are making suggestions?

 

What gems will you find?  Here's how:

 

Physical Walk

 

Materials: sticky notes/pencil

 

  1. Students place work on desks. Every one walks to the desk to the left (or as directed by teacher).
  2. Read this students writing, which is on their desk. Read it once through to understand the main idea, message, and theme.
  3. Read the writing through one more time, this time stopping at a favorite or interesting part to add a comment on the sticky note about what you liked and why.
  4. Read the writing through once more for a spot that confuses you, or that lacks pizazz. Write on the same sticky note a suggestion or question about this part.
  5. Sign your name.
  6. Repeat for the next person.

 

Virtual Walk

 

After teacher direction of which online files to view, students take a virtual walk through student work:

  1. Login
  2. Students find the assigned files as directed.
  3. Read this students writing once through to understand the main idea, message, and theme.
  4. Read the writing through one more time, this time stopping at a favorite or interesting part to add a comment about what you liked and why. Add a thank you.
  5. Read the writing through once more for a spot that confuses you, or that lacks pizazz. Write the comment to explain your suggestion or question about this part. Add a thank you. 
  6. Repeat for the next person.

 

After a gallery walk we will debrief:

 

  1. What comments helped you with your writing?
  2. Which comments did not help you?
  3. If there were any comments that bothered you, explain why so we can address the issue. This is a difficult area to learn to be overly positive and helpful even when disagreeing or making suggestions.
  4. Which comments helped you revise your work? What advice did you accept and why?
  5. What advice did you not accept and why?
  6. What did you learn about helping others with their writing?
