One word – Three pictures Activity 18.
Skills targeted in this activity:
1- ARGUMENTATION
2- MULTIMODAL COMMUNICATION
6- SYNTHESISING INFORMATION

Description: Participants work in pairs or in small groups. The facilitator shows the participants a set of 3-4 (maybe more) pictures representing a similar subject matter, like Rebecca and Eliezer at the well, Supper at Emmaus, The Rest on the Flight into Egypt. Individually, participants select one of the artworks, and find one descriptive word which describes best their chosen picture, in order to help others guess it. Then, every participant shares his/her word, while the partner or group tries to find out the picture.

Hints and adaptability: Depending on the time available for this activity, facilitators can choose biblical, mythological subjects where the original story has to be explained, or (if time is limited) simple portraits or landscapes, to get participants to focus on visual and formal elements only, without paying much attention to the narrative part.
