Now that more and more classrooms are publishing student work for digital storytelling, podcasting, or through wikis and blogs it is becoming increasingly critical students follow the copyright and fair use guidelines. To help you and your students, I’ve created another freebie post – free images and sounds for student projects. Yes, there are multiple websites out there for public domain images and sounds, but I tried to pull those that are safe for student searching. You will find glorious photo landscapes, character illustrations of fairy tale characters, tornado sound effects, and more.
In addition, the links do have suggested curriculum units that could be supported through the use of the websites. Hopefully, that will guide your search.
I encourage you to place your favorite resource links on your own classroom website for students to access easily.
