  create a brochure about your community.

• Take pictures to illustrate such science concepts
  as food chain, biodiversity, biome, and so on.

• For math ask students to take pictures of angles
  in the classroom or school yard.  Example take 5
  pictures of acute angles. A collection of odd
  numbered things, objects that are parallel/
  perpendicular. etc

• Write a class novel and illustrate it with
  live-action photos of your students.

• Have students go on a photographic scavenger
  hunt, taking pictures of the objects they find

  monitors, etc. to show on big screens or digitize
  into your handouts
