Context clues

Use images to work on visual literacy.  Give students an image with no caption.  Give several options for what it's a picture of.  Ask students to look for hints in the picture to try to guess what the correct option is.  Are people happy or sad?  Mostly men, mostly women, or a mix?  How are they dressed?  What is the scenery like?  These are all questions you could ask to help students interpret an image.
