Flickr

I found this image using Flickr. Flickr is a great tool that one could use in the classroom. It gives teachers and students access to more pictures that one could ever dream of. I was able to find pictures of Italy, a place I dream of going to someday. It also allows you to find fascinating pictures that one may not see everyday, such as the starfish above or the a picture of a blue frog I found while navigating Flickr. It also is an awesome way to save photos on the Internet so one can always have them. They can't get lost or damaged because they are saved on the Internet.
This would be a great tool in the classroom because it offers unlimited resources of pictures. I'm sure one could find pictures for just about any topic they are covering in class. Also as a class, teachers and students could save photos of classroom projects, field trips, guest speakers, etc. and use Flickr to store them. All students could access the pictures at home with their parents to share what they have been doing in school. It is a great way to communicate with parents!
