Using Pinterest

I cannot overstate the number of ideas I have found on Pinterest that I am using in my classroom.  My teacher candidate Sarah and I have been pinning ideas back and forth.

Our latest idea was inspired by a free lesson by Tracee Orman called "Using Twitter to Make Connections".  She has some great resources on her Pinterest site or her classroom website.  We also found a few pins about using Twitter in the classroom.

Here are a few pictures that are inspiring us right now.

I will update this post when we get our own Twitter board up.

A summer of Pinterest

I have spent the summer adding great ideas to some of my Pinterest boards about Education. I am very anxious to try them out for myself. I have added a button to the sidebar for easy access to my pins. There is a bunch of food there, too.
