    You scan Pinterest for popular projects and ideas. You may pin a bunch of projects that look enticing, but exactly how practical is that project? Just because a project is made from a paper plate, it doesn’t mean a kid made it. In this episode, Ms. Y. helps you identify hidden issues with some of these projects on Pinterest and Teachers Pay Teachers, and help tweak them to fit your class.
