Bluebird Teaching is much more than a simple materials sharing site. While we provide teachers access to shared resources within the community, we also provide a better way to store and organize your own teaching materials that will save you time, frustration, and energy many times over when you are no longer looking for “that Structures of the Cell” graphic organizer or "that Imagery and Sensory Language Project.” Bluebird Teaching members can choose to share selected materials from their private storage with the Bluebird Teaching community. All members have access to our shared "Discover" space. In "Discover," users can browse original instructional materials shared by other members of the community for instructional use in their classrooms. Users who select materials shared by others can save them to their files to retag for their purposes and revise to tailor the material for their particular students. These shared materials are included as part of the Bluebird Teaching subscription: users do not pay extra and there is no money exchanged among members on the Bluebird Teaching platform. We also provide an inclusive social community, where you can come together with other teachers to share ideas, concerns, and even collaborate on lesson planning and other ideas for the classroom. Bluebird Teaching is on a mission to create opportunities for authentic self-care by making the day-to-day work of teaching better. We truly believe that Together We Thrive. It is our goal to be an useful, practical, and enjoyable part of teachers' daily routines. We have plans to expand beyond our current services as we grow, so join us — and take your time back!
