A wonderful resource for teachers created by teachers

At the end of last week, I was finalising my preparation for a seminar on Bridging the gap from Cambridge English: Preliminary to First when I came across some fantastic news for teachers needing photos to use in class and to practise the photo parts of  Speaking Teachers.

This is a description of the site I’m referring to:

‘ Eltpics is an ever-growing gallery of creative commons licenced images for teachers and learners of languages.  It has its home on flickr.  For the last year it has been collecting photos by teachers for teachers for use in class, on blogs and wherever they fit in to learning and practising languages.’ Ceri Jones 

And here is a screenshot of the eltpics homepage on flickr.com:

 And once you’ve checked out these links, take a look at: http://takeaphotoand.wordpress.com/

This blog has weekly posts with ideas for using photos in our classrooms. 

Enjoy and use!
