I never learned all the states when I was younger, and I still feel incompetent. I want my students to learn the 50 states, especially if I ned up teaching 4th or 5th graders. Soo I thought I would share the website :)

Interactive Language Arts
Hey Guys, ( never refer to your students as "you guys")
Language Arts has so many fun teaching topics. For example, capitalization, compound words, grammar, punctuation, poetry, sight words, parts of speech, and many more other fun things every human must know. I found an interactive website that can work with the students. This way if a student is having trouble on one of the above that can get additional help. Teachers can multitask and put a child on a computer, and help other children with other necessary tasks.

Grammar Prablems
Dear Grammar,
I dislike you very much. You have been horrible to me, and I can't stand you. So I am making a change in my life. I have found some websites to help me with my horrendous grammar problems. I am letting the world know about the websites, and I am going to figure out why I add commas everywhere. Or wait is that punctuation, is punctuation a part of grammar?

This was definitely me when I was younger. This is still me sometimes, but I am trying to get better as well. Check out the above websites for grammar help!

Yahoo Homework Help
Homework Lovers,
Once you get older (at least in my case), you feel like a lot of homework that was given was actually helpful. Now in college, homework is rarely give, you just come in and take the test. Homework can help be a study guide for tests. Sadly, I do miss homework my old pal. Anyways, Yahoo offers some interactive videos to help students with their homework! I think this is a great idea for kids who are struggling and need the extra help. This way if the teacher or parents can not assist them, they have another opportunity.

National Geographic Little Kids
Historians,
Of course everyone loves language arts (my major), but you have to keep some room for a history lesson! What better way to involve history than the National Geographic Little Kids website. It's filled with history facts, and animals. This website is geared towards children five and under, so it should satisfy Preschool and Kindergartners!

Edmodo
Helllo Future Brilliant Teachers,
In my current field placement at Roosevelt Elementary School my teacher is always using this website called Edmodo. It's like Facebook for kids, but very secure. Teachers' can restrict who enters the group. The teacher can have students upload writing assignments, post grades, check progression, and give medals. I have been using it to interact with the students, and I can even show them my mood. Check it out!

Thinking Teachers, Teaching Thinkers
I am definitely nervous about making my own lesson plans for my first classroom. So instead I stumbled upon this website that basically says Teachers First! It has great classroom resources, and gives numerous amounts of lesson plans that may help teachers. It also includes other websites to help teachers. This website can come in handy for early planning and organization. Teachers First also has a catchy slogan, Thinking Teachers, Teaching Thinkers! Cute right?

Starfall
Hiya!
About two years ago I worked a Science Initiative Program over the summer. My class consisted of around ten to twelve fourth graders. The goal of the program was to help students build their reading and language art skills (not sure why it was called science initiative). The kids were very outgoing and loud. I am pretty sure none of them wanted to be there because it was summer. During the program we would play a couple games online. One website that was encouraged by the program was Starfall. It has a million games on it, that the kids enjoyed a lot. I even played a couple games myself! Check it out!

Common Core Standards
Heylo,
In all my classes we have been talking about core standards, benchmarks, and common cores! All of it is very confusing to me! I have been looking into the Language Arts standards to see what it is all about. My professor recommended the michigan.gov website. There is a pdf that is very helpful for me and thought I would share! This helped me decipher between the grades and their requirements.
