There are so many different uses for digital cameras! Expeciall if you are going into the teaching field!

One of the many uses for a digital camera is to use pictures for an attendance chart! You can take a picture of each student and put it where they sit on the seating chart., that way you can look and easily see who is in class and if they are in their right seat. This way you can also learn the faces well of the students in your class! It would be a fun creative seating and attendance chart.

You can also use a digital camera on field trips! It would be fun for you and your students to have pictures of the activities and fun times you have while on a field trip. You could create a fun class scrapbook each year from all the fun events you and your class participated in!

Another fun way to use a digital camera is to take pictures of you and your class daily and post them online on your blog or the schools website for parents to look at and see what their child has been doing in class!

There is also many lesson plans that allow you to use a digital camera. For instance when learning the weather you could take pictures outside of the weather and hang them around the classroom. Or when you are learning body parts have the kids take pictures of their different body parts and post them on a bullitin board.

Another fun way to use a digital camera in the classroom is for crafts! Take pictures of the students and make picture frames to frame the pictures for them to give to their parents. Or you could also have them make a collage of all the different pictures they take, or even their own personalized bookmark or thank you cards!
