In my never-ending quest to obtain as much information as I can about teaching I stumbled upon a number of great blogs. There are three in specific though that stood out from the rest.
The Curriculum Corner:
http://www.thecurriculumcorner.com/thecurriculumcorner123/blog/

As a future teacher, the best thing about this blog is
everything is free. The next best thing about this blog is it gives activities
that fall under the common core standards. I really liked this blog because it
is very user friendly and easy to find the subject/ grade you are looking for.
One of the activities that would benefit my students this quarter is “Menu Math”.
It also has two different sets of cards and menus so you are able to
differentiate instruction.
Organized Classroom:


If the title didn’t give it away, this blog is mainly about
keeping an organized and efficient classroom. Honestly I chose this blog
because I would describe myself as a ‘Type B’ person, which nine times out of
ten means I slack in the organization department. I really enjoyed how the
majority of Charity’s tips and DIY projects are inexpensive and can be easily
incorporated into any classroom. This blog also has short videos that explain
how to create some of the projects, which is nice for someone who is not
artistic, like myself.
Teach Thought:
This blog has four categories: critical thinking, learning,
teaching, and the future of learning; and within those four main categories
there are four subcategories. Needless to say this blog is your one stop shop
for information. This is one of the main reasons why I chose this blog. Not
only does it discuss integrating technology into the classroom but it also
discussing different learning pedagogies and how to encourage students to be
critical thinkers. The blog also includes a section dedicated to parents and
the parent-teacher relationship. I really enjoyed this section because it
provided me with strategies on how to keep the line of communication open and
how to strengthen this important relationship.
