All apologies for being completely MIA on the blog! It has been so busy with end of the year stuff. ACT prep, finals, etc. It has been a crazy and exciting first year and I cannot wait for next school year! I have so many things on my to do list of things to improve for next year. (Don't worry I will still take some time to relax too). Next year, I am going to incorporate Project Based Learning (PBL). I hope this will be a fun and meaningful adventure for my students and myself. This should help show the students the real world applications of their learning. I am also going to try a whole new classroom set up next year! I will post pictures before school starts and keep you updated on how it's working out. My goal is to make the learning environment of a more effective learning space through "zoning" my classroom and increasing "flow". More on this in August! I will also be ditching Google Classroom for Schoology. Schoology appears to be more of an organized format with more integration for web 2.0 features directly in it.
Be prepared for a long blog in August of all back to school goodies and throughout the school year on how PBL, the new classroom setup, Schoology, and much more is going! Happy summer!
