Digital Photography Fun

By Amanda Bennett

 

 Often when I speak to a group about using unit studies, I emphasize the added value of using a camera to record progress while working on a unit study. The pictures are priceless as time goes by, and the documentation of the projects and efforts can be used in the unit study journals. In the past year, I have gone “digital” with our photography, and what an amazing world we have discovered! From nature pictures to baseball pictures, from pictures to email to the county extension agent to help diagnose a crop problem to sharing family photos across the miles – what a powerful tool. And to think of the rolls of film that WILL NOT take up residence in the bottom of my purse or my top dresser drawer! ;-)
