I am finally reading the Tweets from the NECC this year- there were so many great resources shared. Five Card Flickr is one site that I found to be quite interesting. It reminds me somewhat of PicLits, which I wrote about in January, since both incorporate pictures to inspire creative writing skills. You are dealt a set of random images from Flickr and asked to pick five, one from each set. The next step is to create/write a story depicting the images. This activity can be a fun, inspiring way to motivate students to write. For a class project you could use the SMART Board when picking the photos and have students write individual essays and then compare and contrast. ENJOY!
