Images and their Advantages in the Classroom 2
Here are some photographs of young girls going about their daily lives that I took whilst travelling in Thailand. They were altered using MobaPhoto. After uploading them, I reset the size so that they were compatible to upload online. After this, I cropped the photos before uploading them to my blog. Overall, I can see many uses for these photographs within the classroom. They could provide the hook to a unit and give a point of discussion to get the students engaged and curious. Following this, the students could research different cultures and different ways of life where they could communicate with a student from a different country to obtain their own knowledge. The images could also be used as stimulus for an art lesson where students identify the colour palette and paint portaits of themselves. Another use for younger grades could be identifying different features of the human body and identify which sense is provided by which body part (touch, smell, hearing, sight, taste). As can be seen, there are a myriad of possibilities for these photographs with one of these being catering for the visual learners of the class.
