Recently one the assignments in my educational technology class was to create a pinterest account and create a board that had to with our subject area that we intend to teach. At first glance you wouldn't think that a site like pinterest would have any use in the class room. But it really does it helps teachers find ideals for them to actually do in a classroom setting. the ideals cover all sorts of subject areas ranging from English language arts to physical education. This is also a good way for teachers to give students ideals or for students to find ideals for projects that would be easy and fun to use. A cool way we had to use pinterest in my educational tech class was use pinterest to find a activity that we could create a lesson out of that aligned to our core curriculum standards for our subject area.

This activity that I did was a fun thing to do because i learned that it doesn't matter what activity you are doing it someway shape form or fashion relates to physical activity.
This was me while I worked to create the poster for the spinner for physical education twister!
This was the finished product which came out better then I thought it would!!
