Thing #6 "Flickr Fun and Mashups"

I found Montagr to be the most interesting program. This program allows you to make a photo mosaic from pictures found on Flickr. I think this would be a great way of decorating a classroom, or a great visual aid for a lesson, or even a great art project for older students to complete. There are so many different topics that could be shown via the photo mosaic -- specific species of animals, pictures of historical figures, geographical features, etc. This program offers teachers many opportunities.

Another fun program to use would be the Poster Maker, which allows teachers to create posters with personalized inspirational sayings. This would be another great way to decorate the classroom. Students could also use this tool as part of a project or report.
