Kinds of Picture
Bowen (1991) writes about different types of pictures. She gives us definitions of four types and describes their sources, selection and display, classroom use:
a. Wall picture and wall charts:
Most wall charts consist of combination of visual and verbal material. Their aim is to give information on topic. A wall picture, on other hand, is simply a large illustration of a scene or event, or a set of scenes or events. The criteria for choosing or making good wall picture are relevance, recognition, size, and clarity. The best of storing wall pictures and wall charts is to display on the classroom wall.
b. Sequence pictures:
Sequence pictures are series of pictures on a single subject. They reveal their story or theme, like a strip cartoon, in a connected set of illustrations for good selection and display the teacher must:
1) Make the titles and captions large enough to read, or omit them all together and do the describing orally;
2) Link pictures. There should be continuity of characterization, setting and subject from picture to picture, with figures of uniform size and recurring landmarks;
3) If book or magazine illustrations are copied, they should be simplified and parts not essential to teaching aims should be left out;
4) The pictures themselves should all be the same size and similarly mounted in order to make a set.
c. Flash cards:
Flash cards are word flash cards and picture flash cards. Picture flash cards are teacher’s accompanying guide. The picture collections are built up and used by number of teachers’. Picture flashcards are most suitable for representation of a single concept, such as an object or an action. Teachers` representation of a single concept, such as an object or an action. Teachers can use flashcards for presentation new item, for practice of previously taught language and revision.
