Teacher Websites

As part of my Ed Tech assignment, I looked for and found three separate websites that can serve as resources for student teachers and professional teachers.

The first website is www.pbs.org/teachers which is a resource that allows teachers access to different online training courses. It also gives teachers information concerning different lesson plans, and provides examples from that other professionals have used in their classrooms.

The second website is teacher.net which is a forum for teachers that can post issues/concerns/problems related to the teaching field. Other teachers can then reply to these posts with possible solutions. It allows teachers to connect with one another and share their knowledge and experience.

The third website is www.lessonplanpage.com. Much like the PBS website, this website provides numerous examples of lesson plans appropriate for different subjects and grade levels.

Go ahead and visit these pages, hopefully they will provide a resource for us all in the future.

This is my first official post on the web! I hope to use this blog in the future as an information resource for both parents and students. I will use it to post daily class lesson summaries and important reminders of upcoming deadlines and homework assignments. I think that this will serve as an effective way for parents to stay up to date on the information that their children are learning in my classroom and also will aid parents in holding their students accountable to their homework obligations.

I'm excited to learn more about using the internet in the classroom and I invite comments and suggestions to help me make this blog successful.
