Digital Photography

I have always really enjoyed photography, but I have found that my students really enjoy it when I take pictures of them and put them up around the room or in the hall. It is a great way to document activities that we do in class, and also something I have found useful for my own professional portfolio. Each week I send home a weekly newsletter, and I try to include a picture of the student of the week, and also a class photo if we have done something exciting or especially memorable that week.

It is my intention to make them a memory DVD. I am not sure if I will do it for the holidays, or at the end of the year, but I want to make sure that I have plenty of photographs to include. Our school also does a video yearbook at the end of the school year, so I want to make sure that my class is well represented in that as well.

Here are a few pictures that I have taken so far:

My Class at the Zoo

I am really glad that I learned about creating movies in the multimedia class so that I will hopefully be able to use those skills to put together the photos into multimedia that my students can save for memories.
