The strategies apply to all the areas you mentioned so any lesson for "reading" would probably be adaptable to the class. Visualizing a piece of music is easy enough. Let them listen and write about what they "see". Many ballets are based on fairy tales, so you could play selections and have them figure out what story is being told musically. A piece of art can bring questioning, symbolism, prediction, or making connections. Use graphic novels to tell stories. Sports can predict what moves a player might make, make connections between other sports, ask questions, etc. Have students watch a taped sporting activity and stop it so they can predict what will happen next.
A little brainstorming and you should be fine....
