3 teacher sites

http://www.mrshealeysclass.com/
I chose this site because not only is it very informative, but it is also attention getting. The home page has lots of bright colors that jump out, and it also has rain drops that fall across the whole page. The site has pages about each student, that tells about their interests, a little bit about their personal lives (a little too much, ie: who they live with), and a self portrait of themselves. The site has upcoming events, and even has an option to see the schedule of a typical day in the classroom.

This site is dedicated to autistic children’s classrooms. It has 27 helpful links, within the page and away from it. This gives the person on the site many good options. It has schedules, pictures, and lots of information on autism, and how to teach autistic children.

This is a great site to help develop kids reading skills. It has reading games for 1st through 6th graders. It helps students take tests, it has many other reading/teacher links, and even sites with more games. This site has a ton of games for 1st through 6th graders, and interactive sound boards.


Reading: The electronic editing process is very interesting and fairly new. The site writes about E-mail, Electronic dropboxes, and Personal folders on the server, as a way to preview and critique student writing before final submission. Blogs could even rough drafts too. Blog comments and feedback about a students’ paper could be beneficial before turning it in.
The “track changes” function of word is great, and the comments part of it is awesome too. Being able to immediately turn back the students’ paper back to them is good because it’s instant. I’m a fan of “instant results”. As a teacher I will use comments on my students work indefinitely.
