As I read through my classmates blogs, I was impressed by the level of work that has been undertaken by all of us over the past six weeks. Many of my classmates are quite versant in technology and have been a great help to me over the past six weeks. Google reader is a great tool that allowed me to go through a number of blog posts and pick out ones that seemed relevant to me.
For example, I noticed that Emily also liked the "Knowing Poe" website as much as I did so I browsed around some of the other websites she mentioned and added some of her suggestions as additional teacher resources to my wiki. I also liked a website that Barb mentioned, "Dr. Math" as it has on-line descriptions of how to solve specific math problems at all ages and stages. This could be a very helpful resource for a special education teacher.
One thing in particular I noticed about myself as I went through these blogs is the usefulness of my wiki as an organizing tool for many of the resources and ideas I have developed over the past six weeks and would like to use as a teacher. After going through my classmates blogs, I think I would like to create another wiki, or perhaps expand the same one beyond language arts, to include math pages and perhaps learning skills pages. It seems like a great way to build a personal resource bank for my use as a special education teacher.
