Like everyone else I LOVE Pinterest.
I often wonder what we teachers ever did before Pinterest and other forms of social media.
Connecting with other teachers and sharing ideas with one another is amazing.
Of course it can also be overwhelming at times. There are sooo many great ideas out there.
Today I thought I'd share a few things I've pinned recently.
If you see something you like, just click on the picture to go to the original site.
ONE.
These tokens are designed to help with those students who always seem to be blurting out in class. You know the ones I'm talking about it.
However when I saw them I immediately thought of another use for them. I encourage a lot of small group discussion in my classroom. Just like wevhave those students who love to talk and share their knowledge we also have those students who cringe at the thought of talking aloud. I want to use these tokens during small group discussions as way to make sure every student participates and no students hog the conversation.
TWO.
I love everything about this photo. I love the three "rules" at the top. I love the colors and the fonts. I plan to do something similar to this in my classroom next year. Shoutout to @teachcreatemotivate for such cuteness in her classroom.
THREE.
Next year for the first time ever I will have a chrome cart in my classroom. A whole cart just for my students every single day.
Cue happy dance!
I plan to step up my Google game next year and I'm loving the idea of having students record their answers to task cards or any station activity on a google form.
FOUR.
This is one of my favorite sayings for a classroom. This is and "throw kindness around like confetti".
Again I love the bright colors. This may very well be my bulletin board next year.
FIVE.
For the past two years I have been allowed to wear jeans whenever I wanted. Let me tell you it has been glorious. Next year I will be in a new district and will have to say goodbye to jeans. It's sad but I'm excited by the excuse to spruce up my wardrobe a little. I've been pinning lots of outfit ideas.
What's the best pin you've found recently? Leave me a comment letting me know. I'd love to hear from you.
