 Jeff's WIKI

 

I'm 27, or as kids would say; "I'm this many!" (pretend I'm holding up fingers indicating my age).  I am a third grade teacher with Athens Area School District.  I enjoy teaching, but in my freetime I enjoy anything involving the outdoors.  I just completed my first year of teaching and I really enjoyed my kids. 

 

 

Assignments:

United Streaming power point.  I worked on the education atlas segment. It's very informative.

Team 2 del.icio.us links, which were geared toward elementary education, specifically third grade.

These links are tagged by games, general content, health, language arts, mathematics, reading, science, social studies, and science.

My Unit Transformation Project!!!!!

For my unit transformation project I selected to update a unit I already use within my classroom.  I teach a unit on Space and the Solar Systems.  Normally I would work solely with texts, fiction, and nonfiction books, videos, and group projects.  I consider myself somewhat computer savvy, yet I have not included much technology in my everyday lessons.  After taking this course I have become even more confident with my computer skills.  As a result, I will incorporate more technology in the upcoming years. 

     Some of the updates I made to my unit include: a power point presentation, and links to helpful websites.

     I am confident that with the inclusion of technology in my lessons, the students will meet the objectives more easily and adequately.

Great job Jeff, your computer skills were very impressive and your willingness to share even more impressive! I agree with you that wrestling is the best sport of them all, hands down. With your personality I'm guessing that your a great asset to the Athens wrestling program, keep it up, it's always a fun battle with you guys. Have a great summer!
