Online Picture Albums

Since IIS created GatherRound.com(tm), (This was not working in 12/2001 but you can use photos.msn.com.)we'd like to go out and create online picture albums for classrooms. We'll be taking a laptop and a few digital cameras and teaching the kids about digital imaging technology. The exercise will be for the kids to take pictures of each other and make a class album on GatherRound.com(tm). In addition, each child will receive a disposable camera, a bookmark and a password card so that they can view the album with their parents from home or at school in the classroom. (The giveaways are leftover items we have from previous promotions.)

We'll be targeting classrooms with children ages 13 and up and hope to reach at least 200 kids.

Thanks to Sonia Jarrett in Oregon for providing this activity idea.
