Pinterest in the Classroom

Pinterest is a GREAT tool that could be used in the classroom. Many people already use pinterest. So they know you can basically find everything you are looking for on there. For me I love to decorate and I would love for my classroom to have decorations in it. Pinterest has many ideas for decorating classrooms. Teachers can use Pinterest to find different lesson plans for their classroom. They can also find printable games and etc. that can be incorporated into their classroom. Every now and then teachers may have a moment when they feel down and don't want to be there. Well guess what Pinterest can help with that! Pinterest has millions of inspirational quotes and pictures that can help you get through what you're going through. It can help teachers develop more. Pinterest can help you push yourself to the teacher you want to become. Pinterest is also good for group work. Students can use the pins for group collaboration. They can share videos, pictures, links and etc.

I created a Jeopardy Game with fractions. It was very fun and challenging to make. It's something different that I got from one of my teachers. It took a while to figure out how to do it but at the end it ended up not being that bad. First I googled Jeopardy templates on google slides. Once I found one I downloaded it and went from there. The template was very easy to use. All you do is insert your information into the template. You can customize it to your perfection. I completed this because I am assigning it to my students and I wanted to make sure that this assignment was appropriate for 5th graders. I also like to get a hands on feel of the assignments that my students are doing. I learned from this activity how to be more creativity and really how to use google more.Doing a jeopardy review game to me is very creative and i think students will love it. Below I have inserted a link to the Jeopardy Game and also pictures of the process. Please enjoy :)
