Thing #5 (Exploring Flickr)


I found a photo of a campground in Mt. Everest. It will be a great visual for the book Peak by Roland Smith. I'm using it with a student I tutor, and he has expressed interest in viewing some of the camps mentioned in the book.

  1. When I saw this photo, I thought of Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air about his Everest Expedition. We read this in English II. Pictures help students imagine settings in vivid ways and remind them that nonfiction is about real people and places.
