Visual literacy can include many different things. To some people visual literacy is something that they can connect in their mind for something else for example:

1. Adding Additional Rooms
If you’re looking to add an extra bedroom or two to accommodate your growing kin (or some imposing houseguests), you might want to look to this subtle home expansion as an example. Without knocking out a single wall, this crafty architect has expanded their homestead and proved that seven mobile homes are truly better than one.
redneck mansion Redneck Home Remodelsyou can find more of these examples at redneck home remodels. Other things that visual literacy can help myself is the color red when I am looking at my online banking account. Other visuals that I can think of is one that was recent on Facebook.  You do not need to read the posts people are putting on Facebook if you look at this picture this picture is showing the fact that yesterday the USA shot and killed Osama bin Laden the person who gave us the unfortunate opportunity to have this picture you do not need to know where this picture came from it is an iconic picture of September 11, 2001! 
   There are other visuals that affect our day to day lives. Visuals at a store include price signs, advertisements of upcoming products or holidays, and where departments are located in the store. 
In a project I recently did in another class forced us to visually think of what things on the box were to represent. For example the bottle caps were to indicate buttons:.

Throughout this course my idea of visuals have increased. One thing that comes to mind is that artwork in the classroom does not just show artwork but it can show the student's progress.
