| Title | BBC’s Day in Pictures: Current Events Photos |
| Body | From http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2011/11/using-pictures-for-current-events.html “Everyday the BBC runs a feature called the Day in Pictures that displays a small collection of photographs from around the world. … The Day in Pictures collections are part of a much larger resource from the BBC simply called In Pictures. The In Pictures resource provides hundreds of images in a variety collections and slide shows about current events throughout the world. … All of the images include captions explaining what is happening in the picture and a little background knowledge about the event being photographed.” You could use these pictures as informative and relevant conversation prompts for your students. The Day in Pictures is available at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in_pictures A recently updated post in Larry Ferlazzo’s blog, “The Best Ways To Use Photos In Lessons,” may give you some more good ideas: http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2010/06/27/the-best-ways-to-use-photos-in-lessons |
