Thing 16: PhotoPeach
This is the video I made on PhotoPeach of my trip to Napa and Sonoma with Jonathan, my husband (boyfriend at the time). I LOVE PhotoPeach. I wish I'd discovered this site before now. I will definitely use PhotoPeach to make some "tease" videos to show at the beginning of my book study units. In terms of my students using this web 2.0 tool, I could see my 8th graders using it to create a photojournal of the photos they take on their trip to Washington and Williamsburg in the spring. As I blogged in a previous post, each student is assigned a theme or topic of sorts, such as "justice" or "peace" or "independence"-and they have to take photos that reflect these ideas in some way. In the past, they've just stuck their photos on a piece of posterboard. Now they have another option for presenting their work: PhotoPeach. Love it.
