Thing 7

The above link is to the picture I found on Flickr. To be honest, I do not like Flickr at all and more than likely would not make my students use it to do classwork unless they really liked it.  I found it kind of annoying because none of the links I tried to put on here to upload a photo would work.  This is why I went ahead and just copied the link and put it above for everyone to click on and go to the link.
I chose this picture of the beach because when I see pictures, I like to imagine myself there. When I think of a place like this, I think of my favorite place to be, with my favorite people. 
Here is where I had to send the image to my hotmail account, and then save it to my computer, and upload it to my blog.  Isn't this place serene? I could sit right in that sandy spot all day and watch the clouds float by.  This image was taken by "The Family Dog"  This person takes many great pictures of the beach, and they are all pretty amazing.  I love any kind of photo that makes me feel this happy!  Searching tags and such was ok, and I did learn how to do so, but it was not something I would probably use much.  Maybe on an assignment in class I could have the children email me pictures of their favorite places to read and write, or even do homework.  I just did not personally like the site.

  1. I can see how you would think flikr would be hard to incorporate in a classroom.
