Favorite Pin Friday 7-19-13

I'm obsessed with Pinterest...isn't everybody?!?  I'm excited to show off my newest Pinterest finds with the amazing Cara from First Grade Parade! Just click on the picture to find the original source. :)

I'm in love with this bulletin board featuring the Common Core standards being focused on each day.  This is much more exciting looking than the pocket chart I had planned!  (This teacher posted that the superhero capes are worn by the students selected to read these standards aloud at the beginning of the day) How awesome!

I really like this I am a Smart Reader poster! Perhaps I can create this as an anchor chart with my third graders??

I just love the idea of this beach inspired center for sight words!  I wouldn't use it with my class this year....but maybe someday I will!!!

Pink, glitter, and chevron??? Yes, please! I can't wait to show this picture to my manicurist! 

Okay, this cracked me up AND made me fall in love with corgis a little more!

Favorite Pins Friday!

 

I can't believe another week of summer has gone by and it's time to join up with Cara at The First Grade Parade to share some of my favorite pinterest finds!

 

 

1. I'm kind of obsessed with these free Lilly Pullitzer inspired binder covers! That bright pop of color will surely inspire me to keep up with all of my paperwork...right!? ;)

 

 

2. I love the recycled Altoids tin and magnet letters used for making words! It's simple, easy to make, and easy to store.  If I had little ones I would definitely use this...pinning for the future!

 

 

3. I love being able to incorporate the importance of proofreading in a real world setting for my students.  This teacher had students correct tweets from NFL players. My boys would love that!

 

 

4. Pineapple Lemonade...sounds like the perfect summertime drink  to me! Yum!

 

 

 5. AND something that made me laugh! Change the tiger into a flamingo and Brad Pitt into Zach Morris and it's pretty much spot on!!!!

Favorite Pin Friday!

Cara at The First Grade Parade is hosting a fun party called Favorite Pins Friday; of course I have to join in on the fun!





If you're Pinterest obsessed like me, then make sure you've carved out a couple of hours in your schedule to check out all of the great ideas!!!! So here are some of my favorite pins from this week....

1. Glitter Paper Lanterns! Not sure if I would use this in a classroom...would we get showered by glitter every time the wind blew?  The website uses it as a fun party decoration, either way I'm curious to try it out!

2. I love Molly's blog Lessons with Laughter.  This looks like a fantastic BB display to go along with some character education.

3. I love this ombre city skyline! Hoping I can fit it into my communities unit! The question is...how many paint chip samples do you think I can smuggle out of Home Depot in one stop??

4. I should probably be ashamed that I pinned this popcorn cake...but it looks sooooo good! Perfect for a drive-in movie night!

5. AND something that makes me laugh! I love this commercial, and the face on this little girl is PRICELESS!
