Get ideas on these Pinterest accounts for teachers

1. Teachers on Pinterest

This is the number one teacher account you should follow. No kidding. You can find everything here.

The account is divided into 32 boards. The boards concern topics per grade level, course or education themes like “classroom decor” or “mobile learning”.

For fun science projects, you should take a look at their “science” board.

Students might think otherwise, but teachers laugh as well. I can’t count every “teacher humor” board on Pinterest. There are so many! This means you can laugh with your teacher problems and issues until your cheeks get sore.
