UPDATE OF MY PLN

This is an update of my PLN. I am currently following many teachers on twitter by the gracious help of my fellow classmates. They all tweet about many good teaching strategies as well as many new lesson plans. I like how some of the teachers I follow put up many pics as well as links to good articles and stories that pertain to teachers all over the United States. I have asked many questions and the responses came in ten fold. Many teachers are willing to help you with any question you have, you just have to be willing to ask.

MY PLN

I have created my PLN by following many teachers on twitter that Dr. Strange has provided for us. I also have follow different teachers in their blogs. This is giving me lots of new information as what to expect when i become a teacher. They have provided many tools that I can use for my own use, such as lesson plan ideas, different project ideas, as well as general tips as how to conduct my future classroom.

ASSIGNMENT #12

ZAX CARTOON CLIP-
I think that it is very important to embrace change. Even though many not enjoy it or find it hard to constantly be learning new tools to use or new technology to use, it will be well worth it. To see the students in your classroom be excited to learn and have brought something to the classroom that they might have never seen before or will probably never have access to will always keep their attention. We as teachers have to learn how we can relate to our students and plan curriculum that is always fresh and could teach the children what types of different tools you can use to get ahead, not only in the classroom but, also the real world.

This video is great. I really enjoyed their version of this Fleetwood Mac song. It is important to post work on blogs that children do because for one reason, that student will be able to look back and see the work that they have done. It is also important because you are able to track how you are progressing in your work. Let's say that you are beginning singing lessons or join a choir, if you make a little video from the first day you start and keep making videos during the time you are taking lessons, You can see how much better or worse you are getting. It can also show you what you might need to work on to perform at your peak.
