This is an effective strategy for getting students to look closely at images
and to focus on specific parts of the image. Picture disclosure requires
students to 'read' visual text.
Select an appropriate image or photograph. Cover the whole picture with
paper. Cut flaps in the paper so you can disclose various parts of the
picture. Disclose the picture part by part. The students need to read the
image to gain clues in order to make predictions.
Have the students discuss their ideas about what you are showing them, what
the whole picture may be of, 5W's and an H. The students could write their
ideas into their books to share with a partner.
