Photo Essays!!

The Big Picture: http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/

Here's an exciting discovery that will definately improve my attitude towards Social Studies (even more!!). I stumbled across this website which contains a database of important current events all documented through photos and captions.
Some of the latest issues include:

• The Chilean miners rescue
• Pink Ribbon: Breast cancer awareness
• The Commonwealth Games
• Haiti 9 months on from the disaster

These are all prevalent, hot topics for social studies discussion and debate. The photos are of really high quality so it will not disappoint.
Check it out and tell me what you think!!
