Everyone's Irish today! Celebrate! And start building your portfolio of ideas for holidays in the classroom. I found this great poster and activity at a site called Teachers Pay Teachers.
It's a site where you can purchase ideas from other teachers--clipart, lesson plans, posters, activities, exams, quizzes, powerpoint presentations, whiteboard activitites, bulletin board ideas and elements, complete units! Everything is original and made by a teacher! And of course, you can sell your own materials. Cool idea! Nothing is very expensive, and there are a lot of freebies, too. In fact, this St. Patrick's Day activity is free. The same teacher, Karen Bolotin, offers some great basketball clipart for only $2! It would be perfect for March Madness or HS tournament time. (Follow her on Twitter at @KBKonnected. Great stuff!)
I also like Teacher Created Materials. Check out their resources for teaching about and with technology.
You can find so many great free resources on the Web. In the next week you'll be looking for great lesson plans and rubrics. You won't have any trouble finding either of those, but you'll need to make them your own and make them fit the ASSURE model in your textbook.
Thank goodness teachers are willing to share!
So what ARE three books that have led you somewhere? And where did they lead you? Share in the comments.
