Summer Vacation For Teachers

Most teachers enjoy a few weeks in the summer but in reality they are either recharging their batteries to  make through another year of teaching or gather material to prepare for the next year of teaching.  Maybe I should change that to most of the good teachers.

This blog is to motivate teachers to improve their teaching by sharing: information about technology,   students learning behaviors, discipline tricks, how to teach to the new common core.  Each week I will update with some new material I have learned.

Todays tip. - Check out MobyMax!  This is a program set up to help teachers by finding out what your students know and them giving you material so they can learn it.  They make online learning fun.  What is great is that it can suplement what you are doing in the classroom.  You do not need to reinvent the wheel.  I am currently tutoring a student over the summer and am using the program.  So I will offer feedback as I experience the program.  I am just trying the free part for now and plan to purchase it to make it available to all of my students.   It offers materials for K-8 in math, language, vocabulary and reading.  They plan to add writing to their plan soon.  So check it out this summer!
