Assessing what we have learned

Summer Semester has been very hands on and time on task!  I have learned alot mostly about my ability to use technology in to days world of education.  The integrated unit required me to step up and get with the new age of technology and integration of the Common Core Standards in lesson plans.  I feel that I gained a better understanding of why we need a rational for our lessons and setting good goals and objectives will lead a strong lesson.  I am very proud of the knowledge I gained this summer and feel that it will surely guide my teaching in the next school year.  Now when other teachers ask about the Common Core and how to use them in integrating I know I may up to the task.  I know I was able to meet the needs of my exceptional students but, I am more aware of them and their over all achievement now with the new standards. Now with best practices and the use of integrated lessons my future looks bright!!
