Digital Cameras!






I really liked being able to go take pictures using the digital cameras. I liked using the comic life program and I think it is an easy to use program. I think there are many ways that you can use cameras in your classroom. Like this assignment with geometry, I think the students could also have an assignment to take pictures of insects, animals, plants, weather/clouds, and different colors or buildings. I think that in the elementary classroom it would be important to have the children paired off and to set boundary limits so that no one wandered off or got lost. I liked working collaboratively in pairs and I think it would be a good experience for the students. You could also check out the cameras and allow the students to take the cameras home to take pictures of their home environment. They could make a presentation about their life and share it with the rest of the class.
I liked using photoshop and I think it has a lot of interesting tools that are fun to use but I think that program is a little too complex for the younger grades.
