Teaching

I thought that my last blog would be a word of advice. Teaching is a lot of fun and as a teacher you need to show it. I hate when teachers look like they are having no fun because it rubs off on the students and they have no fun. You have to make the material a lot of fun. It the material is boring then the students will not want to learn. If you make the material fun then the students will want to learn. Also you have to look like you are having a fun time or they will become uninterested in the material. So basically what I am trying to say is that teaching is fun so you have to show. The best thing that you can do is smile.

Reading Lesson Plans

This website deals with reading. It has a ton of lesson plans and it deals with all different grades. It has a place where teachers can talk to one another and a plce to keep notes. It has a message board and it also has a place that says teaching jobs. This is where new teachers can look for teaching jobs.

Physical Education Lesson Plans

I found a website dealing with Physical Education. It had a lot of activities that you can have the students do as a teacher. It also has a lot of lesson plans all dealing with physical education. It has things dealing with the Olympics, field day, and games. This is a great site for gym teachers and even teachers that do not teach gym. The website is http://www.teach-nology.com/teachers/lesson_plans/physical_ed/

Health Lesson Plans

I found this website and thought it was a pretty good one. The only problem was that all the lesson plans are for 6th to 8th grade. There are a few lesson plans for elementary, but most were for the Jr. High level. This site had a lot of lessons on different subjects in health. I think this is very important because the students need to know how to take care of themselves. The website is http://school.discoveryeducation.com/lessonplans/health.html

Language Arts

I found this language arts website and I thought it could be a huge help. It has lesson plans for all grades dealing with the language arts.

Math Website

This website is dealing with math. This particular website is not just for teachers, it is also for students and parents. The students can work on math problems or play games dealing with math. This is a site that students can do when they have all their work done or when a student is behaving well. It can be a great reward system. The website is http://www.coolmath.com/

It also has a good amount of of Social Studies lesson plans that are very good. It has great activites for Social Studies and it also post the Social Studies standards that are supposed to be met.
