To make money selling teaching resources think about what you already do as a teacher. I was already creating my own lessons and activities to do with my students. I was creating centers, bulletin boards, math crafts, comprehension activities, classroom decor, day long and week long classroom transformations, and many other things. This was a natural fit because I’ve already been making these things. Next step… selling teaching resources I’ve already created on Teachers Pay Teachers.

Here’s Where to Start Selling Resources

When I am creating and selling teaching resources I always start with a brainstorm. I like to map out my idea. What will this resource include? What will this resource look like? I also like to keep a running brainstorm-list of my teaching resource ideas, so when inspiration hits or I have some time to sit down and create teaching resources to sell I have a list to look back on.
