My Quest to Become an Elementary School Teacher. Friday, December 17, 2010. All Good Things Must Come to an End. As this course comes to a close, I think about how much I have learned, not just about teaching, but about learning. This course has taught me so many ways to implement various lesson plans, whether it be Direct, Information Processing, or Social Interactive. I believe DI is appropriate when introducing a topic and also with working with students with special needs.

Wednesday, July 29, 2009. I would have to say that I really enjoyed the many different ways teachers can do their lesson plans and make it fun at the same time. We need to find ways to keep the students active in class and seeing how others have done this is interesting. Thanks for all of the good ideas. Monday, July 20, 2009. 0 part II - Wikis and Podcasts.

My name is Pam and I am a grad student at MSMC. I am passionate about teaching young children and I am so thankful for everything I have learned thus far at MSMC. My blog is titled Teaching to Learn and Learning to Teach because I believe that we are all lifelong learners. As we move into our careers as teachers we will be continuously learning from our peers and students. Happy blogging! The Way of the Future. We are the 21st Century Teachers.
