I seriously might be a little addicted to Facebook groups. I love browsing them on Saturday or Sunday mornings as I’m relaxing. I love to see what other teachers are doing in their classrooms; whether that be new ways to use technology, new games to play during centers, or new ideas for managing behavior. I also love being able to ask questions and have great ideas and answers within a few hours. In a way, Facebook groups have become an excellent source of inspiration and motivation for me.

Facebook Groups that Every Teacher Needs to Check Out

As I was browsing a particular Facebook group last night, I noticed that many people were posting asking if there were similar groups because they were changing grade levels. I wanted to create a post where I could share several Facebook groups for each grade level, content area, and passion that I could find!

Lucky 2nd Grade Teachers

This group has over 17,000 second grade teachers and is growing daily! I’ll be honest, I spent forever reading through the questions from so many teachers. After a while, I noticed that I had only read posts from the last twenty-four hours. THAT is how many people are actively posting, sharing, commenting, and helping one another in this group! AMAZING! They share pictures of their awesome purchases from Michaels and Target to feed their planner, flexible seating, and storage addictions…which we all know that other teachers NEED to see. 😉

We Love Inclusive Classrooms

After asking my fellow teaching friends if they had Facebook groups for various grade and subject areas, I noticed that NO ONE had shared a group designed for discussing inclusion. So…I created it myself! This group is brand new and I hope it grows quickly. This group is for both general education and special education teachers to share ideas and strategies all about inclusion. If you have or work in an inclusive classroom, I encourage you to join and ask or answer a question!

New Teachers Unite

Being a new teacher is HARD! It’s great to have a community of new teachers to unite and help one another through the challenges of the first few years. Here, you’ll find posts from teachers who have had a rough week, need help implementing classroom procedures, planning ahead for your first year, and dealing with students who are disrupting the class. What questions do you have? This would be the perfect place to ask!
If you decide to join a Facebook group or two, be sure to follow the rules of the group. In most groups, there is a pinned post that contains what is allowed and what is frowned upon.
