A Few Good Links!

The following are a couple links that I think will be helpful as I begin teaching:

This link gives great advice for new teachers (or veteran teachers who have moved to a new school)!

This link offers great ideas for networking as a new teacher in order to create a support system for yourself and your students.

This link is great food for thought!  It addresses the pros and cons of the "highly qualified" teacher mandates.

Welcome to My Blog!

In addition to this blog being an assigned task for an Education course I am currently taking, I wanted to start a blog where I can keep track of teaching ideas, concepts, lesson plans, etc.  I also want this blog to be a place where parents of my future students can come to for information and educational resources.  If anyone out there has helpful tips or information pertaining to teaching and education (specifically at a junior high/middle school level) feel free to leave a comment!  Also, many of the links posted will refer specifically to public schools in Utah.
