For those of us who use Pinterest, especially as a teaching tool, their new rules mean that everyone needs to have an account to be able to access whatever it is you have set up for students or staff. This tends to make it a little - unfriendly, shall we say - for use in a classroom arena.
Below are a few links of similar on-line tools that may be worth taking a look at. Comments were made on the TL list-serv that most of the Pinterest collections are able to be moved across to the Juxtapost site without too much of a problem - however I haven't tried it myself.
http://www.juxtapost.com/ (fast simple way to bookmark images)
https://sqworl.com/ (listed as Simple Visual Bookmarking for Educators)
http://www.pearltrees.com/ (organise all your interests)
Have a look and see what you think.
Just out of interest, below are a few special days coming up that may be of interest to your class - or yourself.
Today (15th May) is Endangered Species Day, Tuesday 22nd May will be the International Day of Biodiversity, Tuesday 5th June is World Environment Day - and my personal favourite Tuesday 2nd June - Rocky Road Day.
Have an awesome weekend folks.
