Week 11: Review

The three websites that I chose to tweet this week and why:
http://corestandards.org-- This is a website where you can click on the state you are teaching in and see what the standards are. My friend who is a teacher in Mississippi says she uses this on a weekly basis to get their weekly standards for common core.

http://educationnorthwest.org/traits-- Useful for writing assignments. Offers an overview with research to support the 6+1 trade writing program, lesson plans, writing prompts, and rubrics. Also includes writing samples to practice scoring and see how other teachers scored the work.

http://teacher.scholastic.com/resources-for-teachers/-- Offers many different teacher tools such as student activities, lesson plan ideas, and bell work. Also includes information on scholastic books and an area where teachers can blog and get ideas from each other.

Brighton-- I enjoyed learning about the different types of parenting and the pros and cons of each kind
Parks-- I learned that the easiest way to make a parent an ally is to send something positive about their child before they have to come to me.
Parent Involvement Research Summary-- The ten recommendations for increasing parent involvement were helpful for me to learn.
