Support learning through awesome images!

Dear friends,

How do we create more attractive lesson in our school? 
How support teacher explanations?

It is very rewarding to use images that complete the teacher´s lessons.
Teachppy helps me to find the best pictures for each content, also safe and legal!

In this case, we are preparing a CLIL lesson plan about the landscape. We will teach this content in differents subjects, as geography, natural science and arts and crafts. Our first gradeers students will learn with enthusiasm! 

Our idea is starting with the student´s closer landscape, and bit by bit, showing distant landscape. 
We will start our trip in the city and, across the road, we will discover the inland landscape (mountains, trees, plains, and rivers). Finally, we will find out the coast landscape (islands, beaches cliffs and the see). 
Thanks to the selected pictures, we will travel from the city to fantastic places!:

1. Buildings (we live in a big city):

2. Roads (there are different depending on where they are):


3. Mountain and lake (look! it is very beautiful inland landscape!)

4. Beach (great! costal landscape!)

There are a lot of sites on the net when you can find images. But, be careful! It is important to respect the licenses of the authors. (Discover more about that in Creative Commons)

We get this fantastic photos on the web page Pixaby It is a very funcional website, you can get loads of images, illustrations and videos with an easy search tool. All the pictures are for free use, most of them under the  CCO Creative Commons. The authors are very generous to share their work, so we think that it is important to name them. 

Don´t worry... use pictures!
Don´t worry... teach happy!
