Greetings,
There are various websites that helps facilitate teachers' daily routines in their classrooms. The website that I believe that helps the most is Pinterest. Pinterest is resourceful in both saving websites that we have run into during our time in the web as well as giving teachers a source for new activities to recreate in their own classroom. Additionally, I have been using Pinterest for quite some time that it enabled me to ease routines in the day care I work in. I strongly believe that Pinterest is one of the resources that teachers should be exposed to.

Websites Credibilty
Hello,
Website credibility has become an important topic that has been embedded into a student academic life. There are various ways that one, as a student and a teacher, can make sure that a website is or is not credible. From a teachers' point of view, I believe that the best way to demonstrate to children whether a website is credible or not is by providing examples and making a list of what a credible source should have. A great example to show students that a website is not credible is, Wikipedia. The main reason that I state this is due to the fact that for many years, teachers have stated that for projects and papers, Wikipedia should not be listed as a credible source. The main reason that this particular website cannot be consider credible is because any individual, professional or not, can make changes to the information that has been provided. On the other hand, a credible source can be used as an example is, an encyclopedia website or discovery.com or any sources that end in .edu or .gov. Most of these websites have been created and managed by professional individuals whom have spent their time researching for the facts relating to your topic. Additionally, a credible source should have a publication date, publisher documentation of sources, and many more valuable information.
