Literacy Heads - Teaching Literacy Through Art

Literacy Head is a weekly e-publication about teaching literacy through the use of art work. Each week Literacy Head publishes lessons for teaching visuals-based reading, writing, and vocabulary lessons. The word "brave" is included in this week's vocabulary lesson. To help students visualize the word and its definition, Literacy Head has four images of people doing brave things.

Literacy Head's current weekly issues are free to view. Accessing the archives requires a Literacy Head membership. In other words, you can view each new issue each week for free, but archives access requires membership.

Applications for Education
Literacy Head could be a great resource for teachers of reading and writing. I also think that the vocabulary section provides a good model that teachers in most content areas could use for helping students learn vocabulary words.
