Teacher Freebies

Teachers love to share their creative ideas, so why not take advantage of someone else's creativity?The internet is a great resource for finding ideas and printables for classrooms at little or no cost.  I've compiled a list of my favorite places I go to find teaching ideas and freebies.

1.  teachertipster.com

I LOVE this site! Here, a first grade teacher named Mr. Smith offers creative, interactive ways to teach your kiddos just about everything.  He is very entertaining, and I'm sure he's the teacher every student hopes to get.  Mr. Smith has several videos that I highly recommend you watch.  He also has free worksheets as well. And, of course, you can find him on facebook. Check him out!

2. teacherspayteachers.com

I love this site too.  You can find anything you need on here, much of which is free.  These are all teacher created materials that you can immediately download.  You can also set up your own virtual shop and sell anything you have created for your classroom.  This site is a great resource and I check it weekly for freebies.  If you want to check out what I have in my shop, click here.

3.  teachersnotebook.com

Same concept as teachers pay teachers, just a different website.  I also have a shop here.

4. http://www.classroomfreebiestoo.com

Every "Manic Monday" new educators post freebies available for download.  Check back weekly to see what's new!

5. pinterest.com

Where else can you find everything you ever dreamed of and more?  Pinterest has a wealth of creative ideas I guarantee you've never thought of.
