Thing #8

I absolutely love making a mosaic it is just so fast and easy! This mosiac that I made was based on summer and lots of blue. I believe that this mosaic website and Flickr could be used to make pictures in the classroom that you can hang up. Flickr mashups can be used to have just a fun time with art and it could be a way to help the class get creative using these websites. Flickr is also really a good place to upload photos for personal use. Another way that you could use flickr in the classroom is to have the students upload pictures onto their own flickr's and then create a mosiac of their pictures to express and tell a little about themselves at the beginning of the school year. Great introduction project and presentation! Also, great for putting photos in a strip together for a science project or another school realted project. I think that sharing photos online is a great thing as long as people don't put too much of their personal life's pictures able to be viewed by public. I have some other mosaic pictures that I put together.

  2. I really enjoyed your post about making a collage with Flickr! I love photography and so this is right up my alley. I could see students using a Flickr account if they were in high school, but unfortunately for me I will be teaching elementary special education. Great ideas though!
