Pinterest: 4th Grade Health

Pinterest: is a great tool for teachers. They can get ideas on any subject they are teaching, art projects, class management, and class organization. I personally use Pinterest for so many other things as well, so I was more familiar with it than others might be. Students may have a Pinterest, and they might be able to use this tool as well. Maybe in my future class we can have a class Pinterest and so anyone can get on and maybe post something on a board of things that they would like to learn. I like it so that I can continually go back and look at those ideas that I have saved, because maybe I do not use them that week but I could go back and use them when I am teaching something that is relevant. I would recommend this tool to any and all teachers.

Here Is what I found on Pinterest to help me teach these things to my students and to understand what they need to be learning, and be prepared for the questions that they may have so I can answer them the best that I can and on a level that they understand.
