Resources, Resources, Resources!
Resources we can use to better our classroom.
Why resources are important. . .
Resources allow teachers to bring content to life. They not only engage students, but they allow differentiated instruction within the classroom community. In this post I have included links from Surf Net Kids, Cool Tools wikispace, and Cyndi Danner-Kuhn's Pinterest account. Each resource aggregate had it's own style and use, but I find Pinterest to be the most exciting and easy to use. It is a visual "pin board" that allows the user to compile ideas into like categories.
