  A really great resource that I find interesting is storyline online. This site has a lot of different books that you can choose from, and you can click on any of the ones that you want and then it will have someone read the book for you which I find absolutely fun and interesting! It also provides a type of music for the background, so it makes the story more interesting and entertaining to read. I remember when I was in grade school, and I used this site for reading. I really loved it and so did my classmates. I truly do remember loving this website and I think that this site would really be beneficial for the elementary kids who will enjoy it as well.  I have really enjoyed using blogs this semester. There’s something about this site that I really like and it’s just fun being able to type and have them dated from when you wrote them. I definitely think that I would use this in my classroom for the future as this would be a great idea for helping the kids blog. This sem...

 Option 1: Tips for new teachers.  I really think that the best advice given for new teachers is to get advice from experienced teachers. Teachers who have already been teaching for years have had so many experiences before and they have been through so much and know it was like their first year of teaching. New teachers could honestly learn a lot of things from experienced teachers as they already know what teaching is like. I also think that another great piece of advice is to have patience. Teaching will slowly start to get easier as time goes on and new teachers will eventually get the hang of it. I think that one of the worst new teachings   advice  is assigning seats. In my opinion, I don’t think that having seating arrangements is one of the top priorities for new teachers. This situation would be different if the students needed them because they couldn’t handle choosing their seats, but I don’t think that this is something that new teachers should be complet...

  After watching this, it made me realize how many people actually use technology. I think that it's such a great technique, but what I am most impressed and surprised about is the fact that people tend to learn better using the technology. I can see how it can be way easier online then having to do your work on paper and I do find it more entertaining to do your work than having it on paper. Nowadays, most schools have chrome books and we usually use everything online. In a way, I am really concerned about how much we use technology on a daily basis. Being on chrome books all day means that the students are having high screen times in a way it can affect the students. Technology may be a fun way to learn but sometimes I think it is best to do things on paper every once in a while. I find it really upsetting how we don't use anything in person anymore because those were the old fun times, and we were able to interact with the class better. I don’t know much about schools nea...

 Option 2 In my opinion, I think that google classroom is an amazing source to use and I think it is pretty useful to every teacher. Ever since covid happened, almost every teacher I have had has been using google classroom and they think it's easier and much simpler. Teachers mostly use google classrooms so that they are able to communicate with their students and be able to assign assignments that the students need to do. I like using google classroom because the teachers can give you the instructions on what to do and they can also assign other types of attachments that could be useful in our assignments. The teachers can also comment on it, and you can also use it to see the grade that you received on that assignment. The teachers can also make announcements there if they need to talk to the whole class instead of having to gmail them on what they would like to say. I really think that google is one of the most useful apps that schools use and there’s so many things that can be...

I found this presentation really interesting and really funny. I loved how he was able to teach an hour class and still keep it entertaining. The topics that he talked about were really interesting and are things that people should know especially about the certain things that happen in life. What I really liked about this was that it was able to talk about the important matters and how it is actually a thing in today's society. It really does surprise me how much someone could have learned in that video. I think that it is crazy how people can do all these things on social media and sometimes even get away with it. I also like how the professor was able to show the pictures and talk to the class about it. One thing that that he was good at was being able to have the class participate in discussions. I really think that this is a presentation that everyone needs to hear, and we should have these types of discussions in schools because they are a serious part of life, and a lot of p...

 After watching the video, I felt really inspired and I agree with the statement of knowledge is about willing to find out. I liked how he also used different examples and how these people were able to have their own knowledge and work things out in life. I think that working hard and doing what you want to do will slowly build up the knowledge that you will have. My experience with teachers would have been when they taught me many things that I didn't know. Sometimes when I wasn't able to figure out the answer, I would ask for help or I would have learned myself and build up more knowledge along the way. There are times where the students tell the teachers new things and there are times where both the student and teacher learn something new at the same time. I think that the teachers should help the students understand things better and I think that they should pay well attention to them. It would be a good idea for the students to keep building their knowledge each day, so th...
