Five Card Flickr November 2, 2009

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!
