One Word Image Imagination Lab (OWI) VERSION 2

Did you LOVE using the original OWI Imagination Lab, and you're ready for more no-prep fun?

The OWI Imagination Lab Version 2 (v.2) follows the same format as the original presentation, but includes new options so that your class can easily come up with a totally different character!

• TYPE: animal, object, or vehicle
• SIZE: Is it big? Small? How big? How small?
• PERSONALITY
• BODY PARTS
• COLOR
• SECRETS
• TALENTS
• ALLERGIES
• PROBLEMS
• ...and more!

The OWI Imagination Lab is an interactive Google Slides presentation that is designed to be used in class with your students. The slideshow walks you through the creation of an OWI character (a food, an object, or an animal). Each slide presents a new detail to add to the character's description, along with several options.

The Interactive Slideshow should be used in Google Slides or converted to Microsoft Powerpoint, and each clickable image is linked to other pages within the presentation. This presentation includes 60 slides and it is not simple to edit. A detailed Instructions document explaining how to use the interactive presentation with your students is also included.

PURPOSE

The OWI Imagination Lab is designed to support teachers in learning how to create a One Word Image (OWI) with their classes. Once you have used it several times to create OWIs with your students, my hope is that you will feel confident enough to guide your students through the creation of an OWI without the support of the presentation.

OWI is an activity created by Ben Slavic that I learned from Michele Whaley and Kristin Dahl. I was inspired to create this presentation after watching Cécile Lainé demonstrate an OWI.
