Digital Photography/Shared Reading

This is in response to posts by Christine and David:

At my school, in the junior division, we are presently focusing on inferencing in our shared reading. To do this we are showing students a single picture from a sequence of pictures from which they will make their inferences. As teachers we have decided on a common Pre and Post picture to use with our classes, but gave ourselves the flexibility to use pictures of our choice in the middle teaching weeks.

Chrisine's post, and David's website, made me think that rather than finding pictures myself I could give students a digital camera and they could take the picture that we would use (or one which another class could use). Neat idea.
