Assignments due March 12, 2010


ALEX - Alabama Learning Exchange
Alex is a website sponsored by the State of Alabama, it provide information and resources for teachers, parents, and students. You can access the website by clicking on this link http://alex.state.al.us. On this site you will find a personal workspace which will allow you to submit and revise documents.

When you access this website you will find eight icons; these icons has a wealth of information relating to teacher's needs. For example, you will find links to lesson plans, personal workspace, professional learning development, podcast treasury, courses of study, and lesson plan. I plan to utilize these resources in my classroom to help my students. For example, in the course of study under the mathematics section there is a lesson plan for different levels of math.


ACCESS - Alabama Connecting Classrooms, Educators, and Students Statewide

Access is a program also provided by the State of Alabama which provide quality distance learning. Students in Alabama are provided a valuable network of quality learning via web-based courses. ACCESS also have the support of three region support centers which train, hire, and support e-teachers.

While, scanning the website I found the web base contain videoconferencing which promotes innovative learning. One of the greatest benefits of ACCESS is that it provides instructions for Advance Placement, dual enrollment, and dual credit courses.

Comments4kids
My comment was on "English with Rosa" blog "what's the weather Like"? In this video the kids used vocabulary words to describe the weather. It was a fun video where the kids drew pictures of the weather they were describing. They started by highlighting the three types of weather hot, warm, and cold. They concluded by describing the weather conditions.
