I LOVE Pinterest. I really do. I get a little pin happy sometimes…which results in a lot of boards and a lot of pins. The teaching boards I followed were overwhelming all the other boards, and it was making me a little crazy. So…
I did it. I got a separate account in Pinterest, just for all my teaching pins. And I am so glad that I did. I was able to separate my pins into more detailed boards, which will make it easier for me to find certain pins.
It made me happy. I love being organized.
Speaking of Pinterest, as I was browsing yesterday, I found this and thought it was perfect in describing teaching.
Do you agree?
