Sometimes I like some resources but I would like to adapt them to my topics or my students necessities. 

Although I visited Twinkl before last week I checked it carefully and I found a great discovery in it. It has an option to create your own learning materials:cards, labels, greetings cards...I really recommend you.

My favourite accounts are: Un dos tres TEACH, My classroom corner, MariaLaEnteacher and Tarrodelosidiomas.

Although there are free resources, there are not too many good free resources so if you want the best ones you have to pay for them. However, it is true that as teachers we have to appreciate ours college's work.

You can use some of their printables materials and download. Then you can also look into the related lesson of the topic in order to know how to use it in your classroom.
You also have the topics section where you can related with unit plans, lessons, curriculum integrations, and programming challenges. In each unit plan you have description, materials, information for teachers and all the activities in pdf.
For example, if you want to know something about binary numbers for kids form 5 to 10 years old, you can use this resource.]]> 2019-12-10 17:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422304888 amanditacva https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422309622 I would like to add some pages that could be useful for Pre-k teachers: Pre-Kpages and prekinders.com. Although, we have to pay for the majority of the resources they are good to take some ideas. 
Apart form that, I would like to recommend you The Royal Hub, I really like this webpage.

You have some online courses and projects that you can make with kids.
There is a lot of projects whit step-by-step videos. For example, you can invent your own machines, you can build anything with LEGO bricks or draw anything.]]> 2019-12-10 17:54:07 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422316683 alonso_luis https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422323634 Edutopia is like a social network for teachers to teachers. Is a George Lucas foundation and it's dedicated to improve students skills necessaries to their studies.
You can also follow edutipia in twitter, where they try to encourage teachers to participate in numerous challenges.
They have some topics and categories in order to improve your skills as a teacher.]]> 2019-12-10 18:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422323634 noe_pop2 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422345291 I find Storyboard that really useful. I particularly like the option of creating your own flashcards, posters and infographics. Sometimes, I want to work on some values or concepts through tales, but I can´t find anyone I like enough. That´s why, the possibility of creating graphic tales also seems really interesting.]]> 2019-12-10 18:36:01 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422345291 noe_pop2 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422348178 Twinkl provides quite good worksheets. But, the content I like the most is the one referred to symbolic play. It could be nice to provide the pupils with backgrounds and characters from their favourite stories, so they can recreate their own scenes. ]]> 2019-12-10 18:39:59 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422348178 noe_pop2 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422352060 Smile and Learn is a web where you can find interactive games for your pupils. That games are suitable to be done in computers, tablets or PDI. You can choose level, topic... It is great as a school tool because you can create your own class and manage which resources are available for your pupils. Each pupil has a personal account and an avatar.  More over, there are many available languages for the same tasks, and there is an option adapted for children with learning disabilities. It is great as a different way to do homework, too.]]> 2019-12-10 18:45:30 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422352060 miriamasr https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422400621 I find this website really useful to start a school year. Every time I have to set and design the different stations in the classroom, I visit tpt and there are lots of freebies to download and ready to use. This website saves me a lot of time! English resources are great though the Spanish ones are a little bit poor. ]]> 2019-12-10 19:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422400621 miriamasr https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422404155 I have never used this website before, but I am sure I will do it in Primary. It is a great tool to make the students create their own stories taking an active role in the class, because they have to decide the plot, the scenario, the characters while they can write in bubbles using the grammar they have learnt in class before.]]> 2019-12-10 20:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422404155 miriamasr https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422410811 Why I have not heard of this website before??? It is a life saver!!! not only in English but in Spanish as well. Specially for toddlers where it is necessary to use lots of images to support learning. I really like the wall displays to use them as anchor charts for new lessons. But it is a shame that only a few are free. ]]> 2019-12-10 20:13:42 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422410811 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422471224 I have been really lucky as my school had a free month subcription on Twinkl this year and I have downloaded hundreds of resources that I am sure I will be able to use for many years. I am addicted to this website.]]> 2019-12-10 22:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422471224 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422474201 I had the time to check this website and I found it interesting as showing videos is always a motivating way of starting a new topic, specially if they are in it. The only perk is that there are many apps and programs where you can do the same. Choosing the right one is never easy.]]> 2019-12-10 22:22:20 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422474201 https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422475882 Decorating the class and making nice posters and banners is a time consuming activity that we all have to do at the begining of every year. In this website I always find nice banners to display in my class. The thing I like the most is that all the resources have the same typography and the pictures have the same design. ]]> 2019-12-10 22:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422475882 bmartincastro https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422574098 Flipgrid is a tool for making and editing videos in a simple way. The students can record the video, add texts, images or documents to get a complete and interesting product. 
Last years, video recording about a topic is a common project in my classes, so I think this resource is going to be very interesting for me and my students. ]]> 2019-12-11 06:39:20 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422574098 mmmmariomartin https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422577095 It is a useful tool if you want to practice the reading with your students because they are going to be more motivated and is easier for them to understand.
Even, older pupils can read and correct themselves by their own.]]> 2019-12-11 07:02:42 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422577095 bmartincastro https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422577322 I connect kahoot with the flipped-classroom lessons. It is very useful to check if the students have made their homework and if they have understood the main points of the unit.
You can find a kahoot already made, but for me it is more interesting to create it from the begining. Then you can ask exactly what you want.
We play in teams, which is easier, and we stop in the questions that present dificulties.

It has a handful of every subject, grade and even for decorate the class.

Providing the program with a text, it get the more used words in it, and represent them in different sizes, drawing the more used words the bigger fonts.
You can delete some common words, choose the colours, the shape and some more aspects of the final result.
It could be very useful in CLIL to help the students with the important keywords in a unit.
I tried also Wordiitout but the way it chooses the words were less precise. And tagxedo, but I couldnt make it work in my computer.
This is the result of copying and paste an artile about Kant :]]> 2019-12-11 07:24:42 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422581483 elenagarridoorta https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422636238 I like this web page because it allows you watch, think, dig deeper and discuss about a topic.
You can create your own video-bassed lesson or look for differents subjects.]]> 2019-12-11 10:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422636238 elenagarridoorta https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422643629 I like this popular website because it has many interesting talks about everything. Moreover, it provides you the possibility of selecting subtitles.
I think it is a good idea use it with the older students.]]> 2019-12-11 11:12:05 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422643629 patriciaamof https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422650631 I have been exploring this website and I didn´t find it interesting, attractive or useful. Everytime I found something interesting for my level was in Spanish and when browsing in English it wasn´t what I was looking for. 
I will give it another chance at Christmas with more time!]]> 2019-12-11 11:37:32 UTC https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422650631 elenagarridoorta https://padlet.com/victoria_ingles/luq4o76jkkkn/wish/422652454 About this website I find out  that it has very practical resources.
I think it is quik and easy.
