I absolutely love dogs, well any pets really! Isn't this little guy just adorable!! While exploring Flickr, I searched for tags containing yorkie. I also wanted to find a photo with the Creative Commons (CC) tag as well. It was very easy to search using these tags. I found thousands of pictures. At first, however, before I realized they were sorted by copyrighted ones and CC ones, I found a picture of a beautiful porcelin light switch cover that had pink roses and yorkies on it. Now I want to look for a cover like this for my pink bedroom!! However, I couldn't add it to my blog since it was copyrighted. It appears that Flickr would be a great source for classroom visuals. These could be used on worksheets, lesson presentations, and so forth. Students really like seeing visuals any time I have used them in my PowerPoint lessons. I also think visuals help students remember the material much better. Flickr is definitely something I will use in the future to brighten up my lessons and classroom activities.
I obviously have to add a photo of my precious Chloe here too. This was taken in Feb. 2010 when she was only 4 months old. She will have her first birthday in October.
