Instagram Tuesday and Teacher Appreciation Reminder

So I've been reading a lot about teachers joining Instagram this week.  I decided to take the technology leap, and created an Instagram account for Coffee Cups.

You can learn more about this from the Fabulous Ladies at Apples and ABC's and What a Teacher Wants.  They are masters! and super helpful!
This is basically what my screen looks like:

I also found that The Clutter Free Classroom is doing an Instagram:  Teacher Snapshots Photo-a-Day Prompt. 

 This looked like a great way for me to get used to using Instagram.  I've only put a few pictures up, mostly those taken at softball over the weekend.  I really like this one:

I am hoping this is part of a Teacher Appreciation Gift for me this week.  <hee hee>  They also have one that says This Mom Runs on Dunkin for Mother's Day.

I took this one of my daughter "24"'s gear at a game this weekend. 

 She wrote a beautiful poem in English class based on William Williams' poem, The Red Wheelbarrow called  My Bracelet.  She talks about the connection between her Gator bracelet and her Dad who is away working on his PhD.  We are going to use the picture as a background and frame the poem to send to my hubs for Father's Day... how cute is that!

If you would like to follow me on Instagram.. and bear with me, I'm sure I'll make mistakes along the way, you can link to my page by clicking {HERE} or on my Instagram homepage picture above.  I'll do my best to follow you back as I am loving the idea of connecting with fellow bloggers from across the country!

One small step for Technology, one GIANT LEAP for Coffee Cups!

I am loving my Student Survival Kit... my smarties think they are such masters of my classroom.  Their responses that describe me are pretty funny.  I'll be posting them soon.
