Reading a Visual Text
• introduce characters
• show activities• show the setting
and circumstances
•display facts and concepts•show relationships
Narrative Visual Texts Factual Visual Texts
Images (visual texts) represent what is going on, who or what is participating, and the surrounding circumstances.

How can we teach grammar from a visual text?
Today we’re going to show a step-by-step process for moving from images and oral language to written language. We can use images and WH-questions as a bridge to teaching grammar.
At the market

Thinking about ‘chunks of meaning’: Asking questions
•What’s happening?• It’s easiest to start with an action.•Actions are typically expressed by verbs.•Who or what is taking part?•Next look at who is doing the action.•Who or what is typically expressed by nouns.•When? Where? Why? How?•Finally, look at what surrounds the action…the circumstances.•The circumstances are often expressed by adverbs or prepositional phrases.

Processes are Related to Visual Text Types
Narrative• mainly actions• saying• feeling• relating/
describing processes give background info
Factual• many
relating/describing processes
• actions may be referred to in a timeless way: The sun rises in the east.

Your TurnIn small groups, • choose Visual Text A or B • identify the processes for your text• identify the participants• identify the circumstances• fill in the process participant chart• organize the info into sentences &
write them on the wall• discuss how this method could be used
with various levels and content areas

What works about using images to teach grammar?
• Images may be easier to understand than text and less intimidating for learners.• It’s easy to lump together meaningful chunks of information because learners can’t see and get fixated on individual words.• If learners don’t know the words to describe an image, they can still comprehend the meaning.• The same image can be used by students at various proficiency levels in the same classroom.• Images appeal to visual learners and to people of all ages.• Images encourage learners to predict what will happen in a story before they read the text, which increases reading comprehension.
