Big Huge Labs and Spell with Flickr

S28 Door handle - P e39 l002 L

Big Huge Labs and Spell with Flickr are two sites that I learned about today at a GAETC session. Steve Dembo of Discovery Education showed great innovations for the early childhood classroom. Big Huge Labs will allow you to make a movie poster, sports trading card, a calendar, framer, and more. Spell with Flickr takes pictures from flickr and allows you to change each letter until you get the ones you desire. For more great suggestions from a former kindergarten teacher, please go to his website teach42.com

Wow, this is really neat. It definitely caught my eye when I pulled your blog. He definitely had some great suggestions that I can use in my kindergarten classroom.

I like 'Big Huge Lab', but I will have to find out what "pimp my profile" exactly means LOL. I love the idea of spelling with Flickr, but the link to the resource - well, let's just say the page designer needs to follow good web design practices - the black background with blue letters is hard to read. (I learned that in Dr. Bray's class on Web Design)

Kim,

This is so cool! I never realized that you could do these things. This is a resource that I am definitely passing on. The quest teacher at our school was looking for something like this!
