Classroom Clipart            Download

This site offers free clipart divided into categories.  It has both photographs and animated clipart, and the site also has a keyword search so you can find particular items faster.  For a fee, you can become a member and gain access to additional clipart.  The clipart itself is fairly basic, but there are a few cute ones such as the crayon box above.

Google Image Search              

This collection of clipart is offered through Google.com, and contains a huge collection of clipart and photographs.  It also has an “Advanced Image Search,” where you can enter exact phrases, narrow your search down by size of the image, color of the image (black & white, color, etc.,), and even request a “SafeSearch” filter.  I searched for clipart using the keyword “Hawaii” and this site returned with 453,000 choices, including the one above!

Awesome Clipart for Kids!                  school icon13

This is a good site as it has a special “school zone” section with some cute clipart.  It also offers worksheets, coloring sheets, puzzles and even a certificate maker.

Clip Art Warehouse                

This site offers some unique – and odd – clipart, such as the bull rider above.  It is not the easiest site to navigate, but offers animation as well as clipart and backgrounds.  Where else could you find clipart of a “fish on jet ski” along with a “man riding barracuda?”

Kids Domain – Clipart                         puppy(How cute!)

This was one of my favorite clipart sites.  It offered clipart geared toward children (with really well drawn images), and had all sorts of categories ranging from father’s day to animals and Kwanzaa.  It also promoted other clipart sites by providing links to other free clipart sites – too bad I didn’t notice this little feature before I searched all over the Web for free clipart for this assignment!

Absolute Web Graphics Archive                 

This site offers clipart images as well as arrows, bullets, buttons and animation that would be useful for designing a web site.  It had a fairly large collection with some cute clipart.  You can also become a member, for a fee, and gain access to additional clipart.  The only aspect to this site that I did not like is that it seemed as though several pop-ups came up each time I logged on to the site.

Clips Ahoy!                              

This is another one of my favorite sites because the clipart includes multicultural students and teachers.  It also claims that it will create clipart for you for free if you fill out the clipart request form linked to their site.

The Teacher’s Guide               

Teachers created this site for other teachers and for parents.  It includes some original clipart as well as lesson plans, virtual field trips, and links to other sites.  It has free songs, book activities and thematic units for teachers to utilize in the classroom.
