While much of this site is simply for "fun" posts, there are several "creators" who devote their vlog to their experiences as a teacher. I attached a video of one of my favorite tips I have learned from a fellow teacher.]]> 2020-11-11 19:02:50 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913961117 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913974661 This is a great way to conduct remote-learning and/or parent-teacher conferences if parents cannot come in person. There are so many great tools on Zoom (for example: screen sharing, muting/unmuting participants, poll taking, etc.). ]]> 2020-11-11 19:07:02 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913974661 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913974984 This is a great tool to use for online/remote learning as well as for sharing school work with parents/guardians throughout the day. There are so many options to be creative (for example: posting photos of students' hard work, creating activities for students to respond to, or even linking fun videos for students to watch). ]]> 2020-11-11 19:07:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913974984 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913975514 This one might seem obvious, but it is nonetheless important. E-mailing is a great way to stay in touch with parents, contact fellow coworkers, etc. when it is not urgent enough to warrant a phone call.

 FEMALE engineer!). I think this is a wonderful book to introduce to young children and will absolutely be sharing it with my future students.]]> 2020-11-11 19:08:46 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913980337 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913997362 This book is stuffed to the brim with hundreds of tips and tricks for first-year elementary teachers. I cannot imagine starting my career without it with me every single day. ]]> 2020-11-11 19:14:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/913997362 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/914017035 This is a great tool to use to communicate with your classroom outside of school. There are so many things to do - you can send group emails/messages, post/share assignments, etc. So many opportunities - especially if the school district utilizes the Google tools regularly. ]]> 2020-11-11 19:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/914017035 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/914108134 This is a great website full of lessons/activities made by teachers, for teachers. Some are free and others you pay for. It is broken up into subject, grade level, season, price, etc. It also allows others to leave reviews for each lesson/activity so that you have the opportunity to get a better idea of the lesson before you pay for it.]]> 2020-11-11 19:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/914108134 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/916901445 This is a great book for any level of teachers. It reminds us that we need to not label students as "troublemakers", but rather ask ourselves why a student is behaving a certain way and address it. Our job as teachers is not to exclude those who struggle, but to connect with and help them further. It is a great read and I plan to implement the concepts in my future classroom.]]> 2020-11-12 15:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/916901445 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/916967979 This is a well-known site that offers SO MUCH in terms of ideas/activities to do with students of any age. It is full of so many resources and projects to do with your kids of any age.]]> 2020-11-12 15:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/916967979 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938378122 This is AWESOME for online/remote learning (or even to help aid students outside of the classroom). It allows you to record your screen (with or without your own voice over and a little bubble of your face). If students need extra help with a topic, or need to learn how to log in to something, it is super easy to just record your screen and actually show them how to do it on their own. ]]> 2020-11-18 19:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938378122 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938442862 This is a great book about embracing your differences and not allowing bullies to knock you down. I think it's important to have books like this in the classroom for students to read and learn from. ]]> 2020-11-18 19:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938442862 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938480227 This is a great, fun series that will help students transfer from reading shorter picture books, to reading chapter books. This can be a hard transition for some kids, so these are fun and entertaining chapter books that might help them develop a good relationship with chapter books. ]]> 2020-11-18 19:26:26 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938480227 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938492158 This series is great for elementary students. There are SO many topics - some fiction, some more factual. This series can help introduce students to more of a nonfiction/informational text that is not "boring". All kids I have met always love these books and get excited to read them, so I think it would be great to have in the classroom library. ]]> 2020-11-18 19:28:57 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938492158 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938534692  This mini series would be great for the upper elementary advanced reader. These are great and easy reads for kids. They are about deeper things, so it would be best for upper el and advanced readers due to the concepts within. Highly recommended books - I absolutely love them (as an adult!). ]]> 2020-11-18 19:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938534692 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938594249 These Ted Talks are quick, 15 (ish) minute lectures about almost ANYTHING. If you need help with almost any topic regarding teaching, I'll bet you can find a Ted Talk about it. All are great speakers! ]]> 2020-11-18 19:50:38 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938594249 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938693993 My favorite things about this website are the cheap children's books as well as the "teacher store" that has tons of useful things for teachers and their classrooms.]]> 2020-11-18 20:12:57 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938693993 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938708655 This website has millions upon millions of videos covering every topic under the moon. It is great for brain-breaks, informational videos, read-alouds or literally anything to help guide your lessons. ]]> 2020-11-18 20:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938708655 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938746265 This is a book all about ADD. While it is not directly written for teachers, it is a must-read in my opinion. It allows one to understand the "whys" and "hows" behind a student with ADD and will (hopefully) grant you (as the teacher) with more patience and understanding.]]> 2020-11-18 20:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938746265 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938757928 This is a great resource for not only Spanish-immersion / Spanish educators, but also for the every-day teacher who has Spanish-speaking students/families in his or her classroom. It is a dictionary full of commonly-used words in the Spanish language to use a reference or even practice. ]]> 2020-11-18 20:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/938757928 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941538442 This is a great resource with skills to practice for all grade levels. It is not specific to just language arts, but for other subjects as well. It offers practice activities and feedback, so it is a great tool to use for at-home practice or for students when they finish their independent work early.]]> 2020-11-19 14:42:36 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941538442 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539074 This is a great game to help upper elementary-aged students practice their addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division skills - along with memorization of prime numbers and strategy skills. It would be great to have a time or center where students could play! ]]> 2020-11-19 14:42:43 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539074 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539481 This is such an awesome magazine full of interesting, factual information for children. It would be especially useful during animal studies in the science area, since it almost always has animal facts/stories in every issue.]]> 2020-11-19 14:42:47 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539481 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539898 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/online-features/metkids/

This is a virtual tour of the MET specifically geared towards children. It would be a great tool to use when doing a study on museums in social studies - especially if you are unable to take a "real" tour!]]> 2020-11-19 14:42:51 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941539898 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941815823 https://www.usingenglish.com/teachers/

This website is full of so many resources for teachers who have ELL students. It has grammar worksheets, whole lessons, and even articles for the teacher. ]]> 2020-11-19 15:31:38 UTC https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941815823 eatonc9 https://padlet.com/eatonc9/ifsb2wu1gkox8o1d/wish/941834866 Having a variety of books in the classroom that show both the English and Spanish (or other language) will allow the student to practice and compare the two languages while reading.
