Trading Cards Redefined
Turn photos into trading cards!
Imagine students using Trading Cards to learn about Explorers or famous Americans. Students could work in small groups with each group member designing their own trading card that can be traded with the other groups so that each student ends up with a trading card of each explorer or famous American.
Check out Trading Cards and lots of other photo enhanced programs at Big Huge Labs.
