Pinterest Pinning Party

Want to join a fun linky party? Try linking up with Tammy at 1..2..3.. Teach With Me. She's hosting a link-up that joins two teacher favourites - Pinterest and TpT! Go link up with 3-5 of your favourite TpT products (organized by grade level for efficiency) then pin 5-10 of the other products. What a great way to spread the love!

Favorite Pins Friday

Well it's Friday again which means more Favorite Pins Friday! with Cara over at The First Grade Parade.

I'll be honest. I've probably been pinning all week but this Summer has been such a nice blur of relaxation that I kind of forget what I've been pinning. Let's take a look back and check it out.

Teaching:

Imagination Soup has a blog post about hooking reluctant readers - I'm always looking for ways to get students interested in reading so this was a must-pin.

This idea, from Tales of Frogs and Cupcakes, of an "Ask Me" student for when teachers are busy is fantastic and a must-try!

Some sweet stuff:

Anything chocolate? Sign my up! These Fudgey Chocolate Chunk Brownies form Something Swanky look delicious!

I love Magic Shell for ice cream, so this recipe from The Coconut Mama will be a must-try!

Syle:

I've been meaning to jump on the chambray train and those jeans really make the look pop! The handbag doesn't hurt either.

For the Home:

Love the look of this DIY breakfast nook bench from Top Dreamer Magazine.

I need this reclaimed wood kitchen island from Our Vintage Home Love.

And I'll leave you with this some funny courtesy of Tina Fey talking about her daughter:

Ha!

Favorite Pins Friday!

So today I'm linking up with Cara over at The First Grade Parade for her Favorite Pins Friday (or FavoUrite Pins Friday for all you fellow Canadians)!

I am so excited for this link-up because since school has been out (last Thursday!) I have been a pinning machine!

So to start, school stuff:

May as well start with this Back to School idea from Ginger Snaps of having a back to school forms checklist for parents.

I love this idea from My Own Twist on Things for displaying the day's objectives - keeps students and the teacher focused.

This pin is for a link-up hosted by Rainbows Within Reach to check out classroom set-ups and organization schemes.

Finally, a little writing freebie from Rome's Readers.

Apparently I didn't pin as much school-related stuff as I thought so I guess, onto other categories.

Some yummy stuff:

I get bored of packed school lunches very easily so 25 sandwich and wrap recipes from Fitness Magazine is exactly what I need.

How delicious do these Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes from Damn Delicious look?!

These Buffalo Chicken Lettuce wraps from Skinny Taste look delicious - spicy and healthy!

These soft pretzels with Roasted Jalapeño Cheese Sauce from Smells Like Home, look like a must try.

How much do I love pinning gorgeous clothes that I cannot afford?

I believe this fun dress is from Sabo Skirt but is sold out.

Of course, I had to include some home stuff.

Love this table!

This entryway from Inspired Design is amazing!

Love these baskets from Cute Decor for bathroom storage.
