By Diana Eastman

Sometimes after a long day at work all you want to do is sit back with a glass of wine and mindlessly scroll through Facebook and Instagram, liking pictures of other people’s cats and double-tapping on recipes you know you’ll never have time to make. For teachers, Instagram opens up a world of possibilities and a wealth of knowledge and resources that can be helpful for a successful classroom. If you’re not already following these 6 Teacher Instagram accounts, you should be. Like them, stalk them, share them. Your teacher friends (and your students) will thank you.

Teachers Pay Teachers
So many teachers have made major bucks using this tool to sell their ideas and resources to other teachers. If you’re particularly proud of a worksheet, interactive notebook video lessons, center ideas, educational games, or test review you’ve created, why not share it and get paid? This is an excellent resource for teachers to support each other while making money on things they’re using for their own classrooms anyway.
