English Unit: Examining Images
This unit was designed to help students understand how images can extend the meaning of texts they read. It explores the skills associated with visual literacy and provides a presentation, visual display, student reference card, worksheets, activities, quiz and an assessment for students to practice and demonstrate their understanding of these skills.
Learning goals
- We are learning to understand that different relationships and emotions can be shown through different camera angles, shot sizes, layouts and distances in picture books, advertisements and films.
