2016

 

I’ve usually done two different types of “year in review” annual posts — one focusing on photo collections and the other on non-photo galleries.

Three years ago, though, I decided to just do one list combining both.

Usually, these “year-in-review” features are published online after schools have begun their winter breaks.  I’m publishing this year’s list early with the few that are available so that teachers can use them, and will add new ones as they come online.

I’ll add this post to All My 2016 “Best” Lists In One Place
