My Bright Idea

I am a third year 7-12 Language Arts teacher working for an online charter school. I am also a mom of two. This means I really don't have a lot of extra money and the extra pocket change I do have usually gets eked out by surprise visits to the E.R. or a new picture window because baseball is meant to be played outdoors. In other words I am just like any other teacher who hasn't recently won the Power-Ball, poor.
I have spent countless hours looking for new lessons, ideas and tools for my classroom. My greatest frustration is stumbling on to something that looks promising, only to find out I have to pay to see the entire thing or use it. I have no problem with other teachers selling their ideas and lessons to make a little extra cash; But,I can never find good stuff at a price I can afford...free.
Thus, I decided that I would start sharing some of the cool free stuff I have found along with lessons and ideas on how to use them in the classroom. So, I decided to start this blog and dedicate it to the idea of Free Teaching Materials For All! I plan to share the things I create or find and hope other teachers will do the same. So, let us collaborate and educate!
