Favorite Teacher Tube Video

As a teacher we all have "those" days where you feel all you are dealing with is behaviors and not learning. Working at a Title I school I see a lot of behaviors, and at times of frustration loose the focus that the students aren't a behavior but rather a unique individual. My Favorite is a video posted is an inspirational story based on a little boy throughing back starfish in a low tide. Watching it reminds me or how special each of the students are.

Podcast Subsciption-Kids Podcast Earths Touch

noreply@blogger.com (Kathy Harms) — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 19:02:00 +0000

This week I subscribed to a podcast called Earths Touch, it was a science podcast about animals and camouflaging and other protective behaviors animals have. I liked the podcast and as a first grade teacher, teaching animal characteristics of the six animal groups this would be a great podcast for my class to view as a review. They could fill in a graphic organizer listing the animals shown and which group the animal fell under, i.e. mammal, fish, bird, insect, etc. Other than the benefit of the review before the summative test, they will learn other facts and behaviors about different animals.

A little bit more about me...

noreply@blogger.com (Kathy Harms) — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 02:02:00 +0000

I am a happy mother of two, a son who is 14 and a daughter who is 11. I love to spend time with my family when I am not expanding my brain with professional development. Camping is a favorite activity of mine, accompanied with fishing, especially if I caught the big one.
