Okay, if you have not heard of Pinterest, quickly get out of that hole you've been living in and grab some duct tape and a glue gun (because I think those are the two items where every Pinterest craft starts), and request an invite (I heard there was a waiting list and believe me, it is worth the wait). This site is an online pinboard where you create a board and post Internet goodies you find for that category. This has become my go-to teacher resource website. I just type in a search item find all these incredible activities and implement them in my room.
Pinterest has totally changed the way I am teaching. It has opened up such a creative outlet for my classroom that I literally stay on the site for hours searching for anything and everything that has to do with teaching. Since joining Pinterest, I have probably used between 15 and 20 activities that I have found and have an entire board of activities, crafts, and classroom management techniques I want to use. This has also led me to check out great teacher blog and websites with awesome teacher resources. Please check out and follow my Pinterest board "That is Mrs. Riley to You" for my favorite finds!
Happy Teachings and Keep Calm
