<p>Faiza,</p>
<p>Thanks for the suggestions. I like the variety of methods for engaging the vocabulary. However, I am not sure if it has changed since you posted this or not because I haven't been able to discover a way to add words and pictures. If not, it might not work so well for my EFL students, although for my more advanced students in might be an interesting way for them to work on vocabulary they don't encounter enough to remember well. I like the video projects aspect, too.</p>

I work with beginning ELLs at the high school level and what I do is just use google images. I copy and save the images I need in a photo file (grouped by lesson content). Google now has all of Life Magazine's photos (going back to the 1800's) so finding great images is never a problem. In fact, this year I will be creating Prezi presentations (<a href="http://www.prezi.com" target="_blank">www.prezi.com</a>) with many of them.

Mariam, you may want to check out <a href="http://VocabAhead.com" target="_blank">http://VocabAhead.com</a> You can create pictures using ToonDoo or hand drawn sketches or Voicethreads etc and upload it to the site. There are also over 1000 words with pictures and audios already on the site. And it is safe for school kids.

Nice ideas :) I was wondering if anyone found an online dictionary that lets you create custom vocabulary lists, and add pictures, and notes to each entry? Any help would be appreciated :)

You could have them draw the meanings and upload them to a "dictionary", then others could see them. You can use a digital camera to take pictures of the drawings or use a camera to take a picture of the vocabulary words.<br />
<br />
Change of subject-- I have an idea using Moodle that allows students to upload favorite works of art, photos, animations, videos etc. The nice thing is with Moodle other people can comment and hopefully discussions would take place. If you didn't have access to Moodle or…

Hey Stephanie, here is my delicious account, I have a bunch of free (royalty free) pics and are safe, but I still take caution when they are online looking for photos.<br />
