Helping St David's School

Due to my connections with St David's Roman Catholic School I have used pinterest to help the teachers find teaching resource materials.

This was especially helpful during the Christmas period where I helped them to find Chrismas gift ideas for the parents of the pupils. 
I was able to find card ideas and save them in a folder specifically just for St David's Christmas ideas. 

Pinterest is available on Smart phones, tablets and computers and you can log into the same account to connect all 3 together. If, for example, I pinned classroom ideas at home on my computer, it would allow me to go to the school the next day, with my phone, and show the teachers what I had found the previous night. It is an easy and accessible way of showing people my web searches without using a memory stick or printing the pictures. 

It is a good way of connecting with your friends and sharing ideas. People can like and comment on pictures which you have 'pinned'. Pinterest is an interactive web.2. 

Below is my pinterest board for St David's Primary school, this board has allowed me to easily share suggestions for class activities. The teachers were very grateful and I thoroughly enjoyed making some of the products with the pupils. Pinterest would also enable teachers to share lesson plans.
