Assignment 4: Favorite Websites!
I have enclosed 3 of my favorite websites and a brief summary of each.
1.) A to Z Teacher Forums (Educational): This website contains a wide variety of lesson plans, free printables, themes, tools (puzzle makers), discussions, and tips for educators. I especially like the special education forms and tips!
http://forums.atozteacherstuff.com/
2.) ExploreLearning (Educational): This site uses "Gizmos" to power inquiry and understanding in the areas of math and science. The videos make difficult concepts easier to comprehend. This site allows a free trial for users. It has to be purchased ($), which is the only downfall.
http://www.explorelearning.com/
3.) 123 Certificates: FREE printable certificates, recognition awards, and blank certificates with matching incentives sheets and sticker charts from 123certificates.com Use this
certificate maker to print rewards for students, friends, family, party guests, anybody. Reward the student of the week, the player of the game, the spelling bee winner, teacher of the month, employee of the year, a student that has worked hard, you can even reward yourself! These can be used as printable greeting cardsor printable party invitations. It's as easy as 1, 2, 3! Reward somebody today!

A Blog is Born
Friends, Romans, and Countrymen, lend me your blog ears:
I am excited to have my own blog! Hopefully you enjoy my comments, advice, and other data. I first heard the term "blog" used by the character Barney, on the show "How I Met Your Mother." I had no idea what a blog was two years ago, now I have my own. I look forward to sharing vignettes of my life with those brave enough to read.
