I am surprised about how many teachers are unaware of Google’s image search. Since I work with primary students, cartoon clipart is fun for them. Sometimes, photographs are necessary, which are also available. Either way, there are a variety of images available through Google Images. One part that can make finding clipart difficult is that copyright images are also posted so you must be careful in the images you select.
If you need quick images, try out Google Images and type in your keyword followed by “clipart”. For example, if you are looking for a frog image, you can type the following:
- for frog clipart, type just that = “frog clipart”,
- for more images, type the plural = “frogs clipart”,
- for clipart and/or photographs, you can just type in “frogs”
The next time you try to add clipart/photographs to your activity, Google it!
I agree. Many teachers do not know of the clipart or image feature on Google. If only they looked at the top of the page! But then again, many teachers do not adhere to copyright rules, which they should also be aware of.
It’s not really “Google Clipart” It’s google image search.
