I feel like I should explain my decision to name them all teachers (two were right, by the way).

I saw the first photo and I thought TEACHER.  Then teacher was in my head.  So I saw the second and third and I thought TEACHERS.  As I scrolled down rather than making the leap of thought to create a profession for them, I found myself rationalizing what kinds of teachers they could be.

Hmmm I can see doing that. And the odds are, if you make one broad guess at 15 people, a couple will be accurate.

I didn't use yours for that reason, but if you'd been more specific about what kind of teachers I might have.

Are you showing them the answers we gave, too?

Yes! The slideshow went image, ask them to guess, show them your guesses, show them the image again with the actual occupation. It was fun.

The subjects of the images, or your students?

The students.

I also shared your guesses with most of the subjects, they enjoyed that quite a lot.
