Thing 5: Fun with Flickr


snapdragon puzzle
Originally uploaded by micstein

The fun tools available on Flickr again seemed more geared toward my personal use. Since I didn't have a lot of time, I created this jigsaw puzzle out of my snapdragon photo from "thing" 4. One possible classroom use that I experimented with briefly was to create a slideshow of photos. This could come in handy especially during my Earth Science Unit in which we study earthquakes and volcanoes. In the past, I have spent a ton of time searching google images for pictures to show the kids, without a lot of luck and with concern about proper copyright use. Another possibility would be to assign the creation of a slideshow to my students.
