Visual Literacy Reading Recommendation

It's not often that I link to another blog, but I've just read two wonderful posts (on Literacy, Families and Learning) that I recommend to every K-12 educator. The first post is an introduction to visual literacy; while the second takes its cue from Frank Serafini's recent essay in JAAL on the same topic. This second post, Visual Comprehension, offers educators some excellent guidelines for how to approach visual texts.
