Obviously, photos can be great educational tools with English Language Learners and with any students (see The Best Ways To Use Photos In Lessons). I post about many photo galleries, also called slideshows. To do it in a little more organized way, though, I recently began this weekly feature called “Photo Galleries Of The Week.” This post is a “round-up” of online slideshows I’m adding to various “The Best…” lists:

Sculptor creates models worth thousands… made out of PENCILS is from The Mail Online.

22 Fun Sculptures Featuring Volkswagen Beetles is an interesting photo gallery.

I’m adding both to The Best Examples Of “Unusual” Art.

‘The History of Space Photography’ exhibition is from The Los Angeles Times. I’m adding it to The Best Images Taken In Space.

Here’s a photo gallery of finalists for Nature Photographer of the Year.

For 1906 earthquake survivors, a day to remember is a slideshow from The San Francisco Chronicle. I’m adding it to The Best Sites To Learn About San Francisco.

Sony World Photo Awards 2012 is a slideshow from The BBC. I’m adding it to The Best Of The Sony World Photography Awards.

The State of the Gate is a photo gallery and article from The Wall Street Journal. I’m adding it to The Best Sites To Learn About Walls That Separate Us.
