Jaclyn, I really liked your take on the lesson regarding Visual Literacy. As teachers we must create lessons that are engaging and intriguing enough to allow the skills sets to be lasting in our students educational careers. In sparking curiosity, wonder, and engagement, we are assisting our students in being lifelong learners and its within these high-level thinking skills that will create open-ended discussion to share their thinking. You are spot on when stating that Visual Literacy is especially wonderful for special education students because it doesn't have the usual setbacks to a literacy lesson that they often encounter that turn students off to the topic (i.e. reading unfamiliar words, high level texts, etc). Thanks for sharing!
