January 2016 Pinterest Pick 3 Linky

If you are looking for some inspiration for January planning, you have come to the right place! I am linking up with PAWSitively Teaching, Just Reed, and Inspired Owl's Corner for their Pinterest Pick 3 Linky.  It is a great way to find ideas and inspiration for your January lesson planning.  Here are a few of my favorite pins for January:

I love this writing lesson plan for having your students make New Year's Resolutions.

In January we honor Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.  I love this door poster, not only for decoration, but also for teaching tolerance.

We will be working on fractions this month, and I think this "spoons" game will be a fun and effective way to practice equivalent fractions.

August Pinterest Pick 3

We go back to school officially on August 18th, so you better believe I've been pinning up a storm looking for some new ideas for organizing, decorating, and lesson planning!  I can't wait to share a few of my favorite pins and to see what other people are pinning!  So without further ado, it is time for Pick 3 hosted by Pawsitively Teaching and the Inspired Owl!

 

 

 

My first pick for August is this adorable art project from Kristine from Young Teacher Love.  I love how it incorporates a writing project with an art project.  I am thinking about doing something similar using the Important Book to have the students tell me about things that are important to them.  I will have had most of my students last year, but, they are constantly growing and changing - so it will be fun to see how they have changed over the summer.

Ok, this next one is kind of cheating since there are really two pictures instead of one, but I feel like they are very similar ideas, and I like parts of both, so you get a bonus pin!  I love the idea of having table supplies for each table ready to go.  You can have one student from each table grab the needed supplies with no wasted time.

 

 

I really love the look of these baskets, but it is super hard to see what is inside.

I really love the content idea here.

I absolutely love everything about Instagram, so I can't help but love this door idea!  I could change pictures throughout the year, and it would give parents something to look at when they are waiting to pick up their kids.  What a great way for them to see all the learning we are doing! Since I am looping, I already have tons of pictures that I can use from last year to start the year out!

Those are my three pins for the month - to check out some more inspiring pins for August, be sure to check out the blogs below!  If you have a blog, link up with your own pins.  If you don't have a blog, comment below with your favorite pins!

I love this Valentine's art project of radiating hearts.  I am going to have my students make Valentine's Cards for their parents with covers like these.

My students always love Minute to Win it Games, and I think these games will be a hit for our Valentine's party.  I sometimes add a graphing component (of their results) to make it a bit more academic.

My students love science, and this one looks like a great experiment!

My second pick is another art project, but it could double as a math lesson in symmetry.
