Stump the Internet?
Over at this historical blog Lynn Meighan pointed out to us called Old Picture of the Day I have come across an interesting idea. I don’t know if it is educational or not, but is it possible to stump the internet?
What are we going to do today?

I just left a comment on the “old picture” page. Go have a look.
I also said I would put the page on the library image search page. Alas – I forgot that it is on blogger and thus will be blocked by our fearless fido. Oh well.
I think you have the beginnings of a great idea going here. Coming up with a picture like this and challenging the kids to find out what it is all about. Do we allow the kids to use “the wisdom of the crowd” and ask each other and adults for help??? Do we set it up as an activity where they have 15 minutes to find the right answer? Can it be set up competitively so that no one is allowed to talk and share information? How do they hide their screens so others don’t see their search queries and search sites? It could be lots of fun!
