Blog Post #7

There are many different sources online that you can use for your classroom. One source that I use for some things is Pinterest. This website can be used for other things than for your classroom. You can search what type of project and grade level you would like to find an activity to do in the class. When you see the activity you want to do just click on it and it will take you to the website.

Another useful website that is great for teachers and students is Interactive Sites for Education. You can choose what subject you are looking for and it gets more specific with each subject. When you go under math you can choose, addition, subtraction, geometry, graphing, division, etc. When you choose one of those it takes you to a page that has different games that you choose to play for that subject. When you choose one of those it takes you to the website that has the game where you can play it. This website would be very useful when it comes to many different subjects for different grade levels. Some of the different subjects that you  can choose from are math, English language arts, science, social studies, music, and even teacher tools.

The third website that I found that us resourceful is Smithsonian Education for Educators. You can search for lesson plans, resources and state standards. When you search by standards, you choose your state, grade level and subject. You are then brought to the list of different standards and if there is a resource for that standard you can click on it and it will bring you to a lesson plan that you can use for that subject. This is a website that will become very useful in the future when I have a classroom of my own.

    "When you go under math you can choose, addition, subtraction, geometry, graphing, division, etc. When you choose one of those it takes you to a page that has different games that you choose to play for that subject. " This is a little bit confusing. Try making them one sentence rather than two.
