Professional Development Plan

Educators everywhere know that planning activities that you may have to pay for from your personal pocket can be a toll. As teachers we need to be resourceful and creative with how we get our teaching material. Yes we will get the books we may need and the worksheets they want us to give, but learning is so much more than worksheets. In order for learning to happen children need to be engaged and having fun.

ToolsforEducators.com is a great way to give a personal touch to your class and their activities. The golden word here is FREE. Here are few things you can do on this site: Make word searches that match your vocabulary, dice maker to help with vocabulary and definitions, make board games, crossword puzzle maker, bingo board maker, crisscross bingo maker, spelling worksheet maker and reading sheet to assess your student in an informal way, writing spelling and tracing worksheet that you make if a child needs help writing their name or so on, certificate creator and the list goes on and on. These are all makers and generators that you create so you match them to your needs. They have thematic lessons and activities that can help you plan your lessons. They have primary grade games, sites from parents, language resources, kid sites, additional sites for teachers, and even ESL sites for more resources.

This is a great site, it is packed full of activities that you can incorporate and implement in your classroom. Did I mention the best part: IT IS FREE! yes all of it. Teaching children can be fun for both the student and the teacher. There are so many resources for educators it would be a shame if no one would take advantage of them.
