Public Domain Pictures
Don't forget to remind your students that not every picture on the internet is free for their own use. There are ample sites that have public domain pictures available for your use: Pixaby, Flickr, Wikimedia Commons, and Public Domain Pictures, to name a few. However, if you don't want to search several different sites you can use the advanced feature that Google offers. Go to Google and key in the search term, choose images, choose the gear shift (in the upper right hand corner), choose the advanced search and scroll all the way down to usage rights, select one of the free to use and share options that suits your preference. This is a really handy way of selecting hundreds of photos that are available and free to use!
