In the same post in which you placed your creation, briefly describe your experience completing Thing 8. Which of these tools intrigues you and why? Was it easy, frustrating, time-consuming, fun? Share some of your ideas for using the images you can create.
I had lots of fun playing with all the tools in Big Huge Labs. I probably spent too much time as I don't see myself using this in the library very much. I may use it for personal use if I can find the time. This is a picture of my grandson from our vacation in Texas. Even though it was 100 degrees everyday he still wanted to play outside. I know there are many ways of doing cool things with your photos. My daughter does it on the Walgreens website and she has done some pretty cool things with the pictures she has taken.
I have read some of the suggestions for using Flickr and I do see how it could be used in the classroom.
Is there something wrong with the Spell with Flickr link? I am confused how to do that feature. This was a fun Thing and I am ready to go onto the next.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteThe link to Spell with Flickr seems to be working OK. Did the Spell with Flickr page with blue text and a black background display for you? If so, after you get there you just type a word into the text box and click the "Spell" button.
An idea for possible student project:
Students use Big Huge Labs mosaic maker with Flickr to create a mosaic that depicts the plot or storyline of a book they have read. In addition to creating the mosaic itself, students explain why they have selected the images used and how they relate to the book.
