The pass few days that I have used Pinterest to find ideas for my future classroom and find ideas for lesson plans, I found Pinterest very helpful. Pinterest is very helpful with finding fun ideas for crafts and fun math lessons for an elementary class. I used Pinterest to come up with a fun winter activity for a fun lesson. Using Pinterest gave me tons of ideas for my future classroom and for future lesson plans. It was fun going through Pinterest just to find ideas for my future classrooms. Pinterest has a lot of great ideas for crafts and different kinds of lesson plans. It has all sorts of lesson plans and classroom ideas.

This link will take you to the fun and creative lesson plan that I had come up with by using ideas I found on Pinterest. I learned that you have to use counting skills and make sure that the snowflakes are neatly placed. I did this assignment for a fun winter activity that has to do with math as well.
Step 1: Students will get 10 mittens.
Step 2: Students will number the mittens 1-10
Step 3: The students will get 55 snowflakes from me.
Step 4: The students will put the correct amount of snowflakes on each mitten according to the number on the mitten.

a useful and easy website to use for presentations that you may have to do.
This website can be used for any presentation project that a student or teacher
has. It is easy to get started and is easy to work. The way this tool can be
used for educational purposes in my classroom is that I can give students
assignments that they have to make a presentation over, and then they can
present it in the classroom.
Image Tool: Flickr http://www.flickr.com/
Flickr
is used for many different images and different types of schemes. It has
different types of picture and themes that can be used for different projects.
It can help people go beyond their imagination. I’d use this in my classroom to
show my students illustrations of a lesson that I am teaching them. It would
help the students’ imagination to what I am teaching them.

Flock
Draw is a fun painting website that kids and parents can use. It has different

Comic
Strip Makers is used to make fun little comics and story lines. It brings out
the creative thinking in a student. Kids are able to express themselves better.
The way I would use this in my classroom would be getting my students to do a
fun little project so I could see their personality and how they would react to
others. I would be able to tell if they get along with people or if they were
shy.
Graphing Tool: Create a
graph http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/createagraph/default.aspx
Create
a graph lets you create any type of graph that you need to use. It’s easy to
use and easy to come up with your own graph. Students will be able to come up
with their own graph about anything. I would have students make graph of a math
function that I give them. It will show me how much they understand functions.
Quiz and Poll Tool: My
Studiyo http://www.quizrevolution.com/
My Studiyo is a website that allows
students to make up quiz that can help them with test that they have coming up.
It is a handy website to study and get prepared for a test. I would want my

test.

Bubblus

you are trying to put on paper. It has colorful charts and brainstorm bubbles
that you can use. I would use this in a writing assignment. I would have the
students brainstorm ideas and use this website for their brainstorming.
Mapping Tool: Mapskip http://www.mapskip.com/index.php
Mapskip
is a useful website for when a student wants to create a map for a history
class. It is very easy to use and fun to use. It’s creative and helpful. I
would have my students in my classroom make a map of the United States and have
them label it. I would have them label the capitals of each state.
Research Tool: Spezify http://spezify.com/
Spezify
helps you narrow down your search. It gives you the best websites and it gives
you definitions to certain words in your search. It is helpful for research
projects. I would let my students use this website for a research project that
I give them. I would have them find multiple resources for their project.
Music Tool: Jitterbug http://jitterbug.tv/
Jitterbug
is a kid friendly music website that any age can listen to it. It has kid
friendly videos as well. It is fun and students can listen to this when they
