Theme-Based Vocabulary Photo Banks
The Google Slides on this page are collections of free, usable photos organized around vocabulary themes. These collections support oral vocabulary-building activities that allow learners to develop foundations for meaningful transfer when beginning to look at text. Each slide bank will open in view mode. To make your own copy, log into your Google account, then click on file and "make a copy."
To see a training on how this is used in the classroom, watch the Recording of 1.5 Hour Classroom Assistant Training (March, 2022) .
Note: Resources continue to be added to this site. Check back for additional themes.
