Here are the photos from the shoot I took when we were planning on making the READ posters for our school. Funding later got canned for that project, but I thought most of them came out nice enough to save for later. (set: Look Who's Reading!
I felt like it took no time at all going to Flickr and uploading my stuff and having cdlc be "my group". I struggled however getting them here!
I can see where this would be a great tool in an elementary school for teachers and students. For teachers- they would be able to make separate groups of photos to share with parents of things that were going on in the classroom, or field trips, etc... another for staff to share on whatever-sharing things that may work in your classroom or even critiquing sessions.
I'm now thinking of a ton of things that we've done in library that would be great to share with other teachers, staff at faculty meetings, and parents at PTO and board meetings-(you mean I could just send the photos and wouldn't have sit up thru the entire night for a board meeting???!!) Also was thinking of a great activity that could be done with making personal connections to stories that we do with photos- I think that could be a lot of fun! You could share with your students pics of them-they always love those- or have them post photos to share.
I know there are alot of visual learners and just those that love to look (myself included in both categories!) that this could be used for. I'm thinking what I would probably be using it most for at least to begin with is LIBRARY PROMO!
It would also be great to have a collection of ideas for you only that you personally liked and would like to adapt later on. I know I often see things and then later forget, but as they say- a picture is worth a thousand words...( Sandra's post actually gave me that idea for myself too. Thanks Sandra!! :)

What a great set of photos. Were you going to print full posters of them? What a shame you lost the funding. Could you add your own "read" to them and use them as web page photos?
Actually when I did them, I did use an app to put the READ across the top and they were going to be full poster size (like the celebrity posters they sell like that?) I though they really were cool! But then, you know how that is, with the old ax coming down and wiping stuff off your plate...(sigh). SO I took the READ off all but one. Figured I would just keep and use them somewhere, just wasn't sure what for yet....but I could always do that, or maybe even use them monthly for something with the READ across the top for the library...
PS_ Thanks!
