AVID Focus: One Pagers
Recap-What is a One Pager?
- A One-Pager is a creative response to your learning experience. It allows you to respond imaginatively while being brief and concise in making connections between words and images. We think about what we see and read differently when we are asked to do something with what we have seen or read.
Typical AVID One Pager Rubric:
- Use unlined white paper.
- Title the One-Pager appropriately to reflect the content.
- Use colored pens, pencils, or markers. The more visually appealing it is the more your peers will learn.
- Fill the entire page.
- Be purposeful about the arrangement of your One-Pager. For example, have a reason for using a certain color or for placing an object in a certain place.
- Write two quotations from the reading or activity. Use the proper grammatical format.
- Use three visual images, either drawn or cut out from magazines, to create a central focus to your page. If you use a computer image, personalize it to make it your own.
- Place five essential vocabulary words/ phrases around the images. These terms/ words / phrases should express the main ideas, your impressions, feelings, or thoughts about what you have seen or read.
- Write the main idea of the reading.
- Write two Costa's Level 2 or 3 questions and answer them. D Put a symbolic colored border around the edges of the page. D Write your name on the back.
