Just like using Canva.com or Flaticon.com to put together resources, I recently started using Freepik.com. If you create an account ( free ) you get to download some of the their pictures for free. You have a link to give the author recognition if you sell your resources.I needed groups of pictures ( they call it vectors in the design industry) and also scenes.
As you can see in the examples here it is pretty useful for worksheets reading materials based on pictures. ( see left on clothing and bottom left of the cluster picture on house)
Again if we focus on the TL at beginner level it is pretty useful!
I also use Freepik scenes and vectors for presentations.
It was time I gave my house unit a revamp, and I really liked the modern and clear look of some of these houses. I was able with the same picture to do a presentation on rooms of the house and prepositions. For chores, I found a vector ( top right) that had most of the vocabulary I was looking for. If you use Prezi this would be great too as I used circle shapes to highlight the chore I am talking about in each slide.
Using the same picture as a base for various slides keeps it simple and clear for our students, they also help our visual learners who will be able to work from the same picture.Once downloaded the picture is essentially yours to have fun with, so the vectors could be cut up into all the various smaller pictures and used for a memory game, a card game or what ever else you want to do!
