At the beginning of this course, honestly I did not know how much I would learn. But I have been suprised to learn from the articles we have read and from the online resources I have found. My favorite websites I have come across are Read, Write, Think and National Geographic. For Language Arts teachers, the first website offers lesson plans for grades K-12, for everything from reading to writing to using media in ELA classrooms. I have found some incredible lesson plans for my Language Arts class. The National Geographic website also has wonderful lesson plans and resources for teachers. There are creative lessons for everything from science to geography to social studies and everything in between.
And yes, I will continue finding resources. As a teacher, I believe that I will never stop being a student. To do my students justice, I believe I need to continually find resources that will better my teaching and enhance my students’ learning! The Internet is full of resources that are free and extremely accessible!
I have learned a lot from this class. I definitely have found some really good materials on the internet as well. Like you can they are free and that is really important since we want be making a lot of money.

Jami,
Miss you Girl!! I have been able to learn a lot from this class too and plan to use these resources in the future. I just wish that it wouldn’t have been during block II. Good luck with the rest of your internship and with student teaching. It is crazy to think that we are actually going to be teachers soon!!
