Thing #6

After wading through the Wikipedia article with difficulty, I really enjoyed exploring all of the ways to use the information and viewing many of the examples of each. I saw several that I can use with my students next year.

The Mosaic Maker would be an excellent tool for the students to use to create unit pages for their studies of regions of the world. A mosaic of sites from pictures found on Flickr to show the diversity of the physical features of a continent would be great.

The students could use Mappr to display pictures of important sites on a map of a region.

I really like the activity of students making Trading Cards of animals unique to a region. I will definitely include this in my plans for next year.
