Good day

I think the hardest part for me today was staying focused. I'd learn about one thing, start figuring out if and how I could use it in my classroom and then I'd have to move on to something else! Good thing we had those sessions later in the day. :)

Oh... and my blog can be found here... it's only started discussing Global Learner related "stuff" (sorry for the technical term), but more will be added as things go, and I've been using it as my official "teacher blog" in general, giving my students from last year a bit of a glimpse into my summer, but also being open to discussions related to Global Learner, IB, and teaching in general.

Homework

Today's training was fantastic! At the time my mind was a tad over-loaded, but now that I am going back to check things out I am excited all over again.

Algebra Lesson

So I am taking a class this spring semester titled "teaching algebra and trigonometry." The final exam for the project was to create/compile a document that other teachers could use/learn from for teaching a unit in the courses of Algebra or Trigonometry. I did my unit for ACHS's Alg 9B's first unit of study - Linear Functions. It's 50 pages long, so it might seem cumbersome unless you're actually teaching a unit on linear functins. I've attached a link to the link on my webpage for you to view the document.

I'm really not paying attention. I tried to post here, but did it twice on my reflections blog. But here it is, I'm still working on the "cross-blogging" thing.
