Thing #5 Exploring Flickr

Flickr is a great way to find excellent portraits of the world around us. This picture is a great example of so many concepts we cover in science: erosion, deposition, slow changes, ... and even getting students to think of ways to stop the erosion. I think that if a teacher created a group of photos that were science specific, this could be a great use in the classroom. Students could create their own PowerPoints giving examples of a topic, or students could download a picture and write a summary of how this demonstrates things learned in the classroom.
