Food for Thought...

Something to think about...

If a doctor, lawyer, or dentist had 40 people in his office at one time, all of whom had different needs, and some of whom didn't want to be there and were causing trouble, and the doctor, lawyer, or dentist, without assistance, had to treat them all with professional excellence for nine months, then he might have some conception of the classroom teacher's job. ~Donald D.

Annotated Bibliography

Another course requirement of the semester that actually turned out to be a great assignment and very beneficial was an annotated bibliography.
We had to create an annotated bibliography on children’s books for grades K-6 and it really gave me an insight into building a diverse classroom library. Through the process of researching books for the assignment in each different category of literature (fiction, fantasy, etc) I have learned about great websites to use in order to build a great library and have actually gone and bought the books to get my library started. I was able to learn about awards that books have received and I have learned about ways that books can be used in the classroom.
