Here are a few links to the teachers around the internet who inspire me!  Want to add to this list?  Comment Below.

• Catlin Tucker: Catlin specializes in Station Rotation and Blended learning techniques that can apply to all secondary teachers!  She also shares great ideas that are specific to English, Science, and Tech teachers.  I love both her books: Creatively Teach the Common Core Literacy Standards with Tech and Blended Learning in Action.

• The Cult of Pedagogy: This podcast and blog from Jennifer Gonzales discusses a range of subjects from tech tools to social justice teaching practices and everything in between.  I listen to the podcast on the way to work and usually arrive inspired!

• Jen Roberts: She literally wrote the book on going one to one with devices in the classroom (Power Up).  She blogs about teacher tips and also runs her daily 9th grade English class through blogger.  Pro tip: Follow her on twitter.  She shares tons of helpful tricks. 

• The Google Teacher Tribe: This podcast from Matt Miller of Ditch that Textbook and Kasey Bell from Shake Up Learning is a very informative listen next time you are in the car! They talk about classroom practices, google updates, and answer questions from the tribe. 

• Jay 4 Ed Tech: Our friendly neighborhood OUHSD Coordinator of Educational Technology blogs about QFT and bootstrap Math among other things of interest! Check him out. 

• Moving Writers: This site is a mentor text dream.  English teachers, follow them and check their site for pure amazingness! 

• Penny Kittle and Kelly Gallagher: These two partner up on Book Love, 180 days, Mentor Texts, Article of the Week, Faculty Book Club and so much more.
