Thing #8

Life is a puzzle and this unique site lets you turn your pictures into puzzles.  http://www.imagechef.com allows you to create very dramatic images with the click of your mouse.  This was a very enjoyable site to use and it is user friendly.  The picture I chose to use was a mural that I painted in my high school gymnasium when I was a senior there.  I chose this picture because I took it when I was teaching chemistry there last year.  Not only can it be used to create novel reminder notes for your students, it can also be used to decorate your classroom.  Students could employ the graphics on this site to paint covers for reports or to initialize their plan books for assignments.  When you make homework fun, the students enjoy it and retain more information.  Creative writing assignments could be replaced though allowing students to create their own picture puzzle.
