A) When looking for ideas for writing take a look at Internet4Classrooms. www.internet4classrooms.com
B) This site offers a variety of lesson plan topics, activities that can be done, printable materials for students and their parents, extra practice work for students, and even some interactive games for students to practice with after learning a lesson. One thing that intrigued me about this site is that it gives a list of writing prompts for teachers to use when teaching their lesson. Each one is classfied by grade level in order for every grade to use this site.
C) There are times when my students would have problems trying to find something to write about. This site is there to help with topics that might intrigue them or even give them some idea on what to write. I know that some of my students also told me that it helps with even showing them how to finish their paper if they are stuck. There are even games that can show students how to start their paper and even sum up a paper that they might be having problems finishing. This site would be used in order to help my students improve their writing techniques. I would let them take the time to explore the site and even participate in some of the games that are offered on it.
2.)
a.) The second site that I like to use with my writing techniques is called Everybody Writes. http://www.everybodywrites.org.uk/
b.) This is a site that is based on writing. It makes it enjoyable and relevant for young people. It is also used to give teachers innovative ideas and practical resources to get their students excited about writing. There are four components that this website is based on: taking writing beyond the classroom, giving children authentic events to write about, finding real audiences for children's writing, and also exploring writing across the curriculum. I found these ideas to be relevant to what I believe in when it comes to my students writing.
c.) This can be used in my teaching with creating writing lesson plans for my students. There are times when I want the lesson plan to have a meaning or show some excitement and in order for that to happen, I turn to this site in order to get some ideas. This site also helps my students with ideas on what to write. There are times when I want my students to be given an option on what to write. I know that they dont always want to be given a topic so this site can be used in order to give some students that need help picking a topic ideas for their papers.
3.)
a.) This particular writing site can be used when it comes to improving my students writing, its called: PBS Teachers http://www.pbs.org/teachers/
b.) This site is dedicated for teachers K-12. It provides educational resources ofr them that can be used in their classroom. This is where teachers can find classroom materials that are suitable for a wide range of subjects and also grade levels. This site provides teachers with thousands of lesson plans, teaching activities, on-demand assests, and also interactive games for students. The resources are correlated to state and national educational standards.
c.) I used this site when it came to getting ideas for my student teaching lesson plans. It was able to give me plenty of games and activities that I could use when delivering my lesson to my students. I was able to keep their attention and actually have them ask me for more games for the following day. I know that I will be able to use this site for even more ideas and even be able to do some of the interactive games with my students when teaching one of my lessons in my future class.
4.)
a.) This is the last site that I used when creating lesson plans and also getting ideas. Its called PowerPoint for writing. www.pppst.com/writing.html
b.) This site revolves around powerpoints. These powerpoints were created for teachers that wanted to incorporate technology in their classrooms. I know that there are many examples of writing and also the writing process that teachers can use in order to teach to their students. There is a wide range of topics that teachers can use in their lessons. Some of them include writing process, prewriting, graphic organizers, journalism, and many more.
c.) This site can be used when I need powerpoints to explain my lesson in more detail. I know that when I was at my placement, there were times when my visual learners needed something to see in order to grasp the topic that I was teaching about. I know that there are times when I may have problems creating powerpoints and this site can help by offering examples of powerpoints that I can download and use in my classroom. I also like the quizes that are offered at the end of some of the powerpoints. I find it interesting to see who was paying attention and who wasn't. I just find that it helps my students when there is some technology used in my lesson.
