Favorite Pins Friday!

Terri over at The Creative Apple does a "Favorite Pins Friday" post every Friday--thought I'd join in on the fun today!

Here are 5 favorites from what I have pinned this week on Pinterest. {Click here to head to my Pinterest boards.}

I LOVE the use of the Skitch app for this activity! For you older grades, this is a GREAT activity for visualizing area and perimeter in the real world! (Of course, this can also be done with printed pictures if you don't have access to iPads for your class.)

HOW. FUN. IS. THIS????!

 

I have been saving book jackets for the past year in hopes of eventually making some sort of banner with them for my classroom library. After seeing these pins, now I can't decide which shape for the banner! Love them both!

The best of Chemistry Cat--nuff said.

I thought this looked like a fun art project (for multiple grade levels). We spend some time learning about life cycles in 1st grade so this project would tie in nicely.

Off to start the day--have a great Friday!

You have my permission to PIN!

You have probably come across blog posts regarding Pinterest's terms of use here lately. Basically, if you pin something you are agreeing that you have the right to pin it; Pinterest can then use the images in any way they see fit. Check out this post by Laura Candler for more information on the issue. Also on her post is a list of blogs who have granted you permission to pin. Know that you have permission from the blog author to pin whenever you see the red button (above). If you do not see the badge then you will need to contact the blog author for permission.

That being said, consider this my official post granting you permission to pin images from my blog! Also, click below if you would like to check out my boards on Pinterest:

Soooooo I finally got around to adding a Pinterest button to my sidebar--feel free to click and check out my boards! :)

Pinspiration Linky Party

Like many of you, I am OBSESSED with Pinterest. I constantly save photos of things I like, but mainly things I want to recreate. I actually completed my first Pinterest project tonight! I am NOT a cook at all, I don't like it (though I LOVE to eat). :) I can make cupcakes though! (From the box, of course.....) I pinned this picture of these adorable owls:

 And here is my own rendition:

The whole parliament of owls

Please excuse the iPhone pics :)

I want to see what YOU have used Pinterest to do. Have you recreated anything that you've pinned? Please join the party! :D
