Week of May 18--Photoshop
Have you ever heard of Photoshop? It's a program that you can use to change your pictures. Some pictures on the internet are real but some of them have been Photoshopped to make them look real. See if you can discover which of these pictures are real and which ones have been changed to look like something they are not.
Here are some things to look for:
