A French Clip Art site.Clip Art images are given in many different areas. Useful images for the foreign language classroom (can be edited for other languages). This is a great tool for creating graphics for the classroom, using as flashcards, adding to worksheets/quizzes/tests, and incorporating as a talking point in VoiceThread.

Great visuals! Thanks for sharing.

Here is another good site with an overview of features of voicethread.

One of the best tools that I know of for use in teaching foreign language. Very flexible. Use it to teach new content, to let students practice listening and/or speaking, for student projects, to collect native speakers comments etc. Note that there are two versions: Voicethread and Ed Voicethread. Ed requires a school account, but provides an added measure of security and functionality in terms of classes (well worth it)
