Thing #7 Flickr

Classroom Library, a photo by Fundacion Escuela Nueva on Flickr.

I found this image that I liked: I liked this photo because this is a great idea for something that I can put in my classroom so my students can have access to many types of books that they can read and dictionaries and thesauruses they can use for resources. I enjoyed using flickr and finding images. It was very easy to use and there were many different images available. I liked that you could search for any image and lots of different images came up. I will use flickr in my classroom to find images of models and other representations based on the lesson I am teaching that students can use to better understand the lesson. I have never used another photo hosting service besides flickr. I do not have any concerns about having my photos public because I just have to be careful what I put up there and I can make it private if I feel like I need to. Some of the photos I put up there people can use to get ideas for their classroom or lesson plans or anything else useful so I think some photos I upload should be allowed to be public so other people can view and/or use them. I think flickr is great way to share, view and upload images.
