This photo by Andrew reminds me of The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton.
Flickr: I have heard of this website before, but I never explored it until now. It's amazing the vast amount of photos that are posted here! I spend close to an hour last night looking at all of the photography. I also found it interesting the different types of copyright rules posted on this site. I can see how students would enjoy using Flickr in their school projects. One of the novels that I teach is The Giver by Lois Lowry, and I could post black and white photos on Flickr as part of a class project or have the students take different black and white pictures and post them. The only thing that is keeping me from doing this is that this website is blocked by my school district's firewall!
until things change, think of a way you could gather student work or groups of photos for them to work with...maybe in another type of site and use the idea that way! I bet you can think of some way!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors on your blog, including the photo! How beautiful. (I'm a very visual person) :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, flower lady! I love pictures of sunrises and sunsets :-)
ReplyDeleteI love The Giver, and I didn't read it until college! Isn't red the first color the main character sees? Maybe you could try and find pictures with a red focus!
