October 31, 2008

Hey all,

Thanks for your participation today.  That's what makes class interesting!!  :)

Just 2 things to address today:

1) Stephanie feels like she has so many content courses that she doesn't have enough time to take them.  She's wondering if any of the rest of you feel that way?   If that's a problem, how are you dealing with it?  Has anyone found a way to increase their content based courses and help get more content knowledge in the content areas?

2) How may lesson plans you do in methods will depend upon which content areas you are in.  I know my social studies kids do a lot of them because I have them practice before they create their actual units, but I don' t know about other content areas.  I know you have to do at least a 7-10 day unit in each content area - so there's a minimum of 7-10.

Happy Halloween!!
Diann
