Faculty Lesson Plan Blogs

Here at May Community Academy we have some awesome blogging going on! Three of our teachers are blogging their lesson plans instead of using the standard lesson plan template. Benefits/goals of doing this:

1. to allow students to get a jump on what will be taught the following week
2. to receive website resources from me that students can then visit as refreshers or supplemental activities
3. to promote a sense of "classroom community and pride" as students, faculty, parents, and any other interested parties comment on the blogs
4. to become more digitally literate, enhancing students' & teachers' 21st century skills
5. to become a repository of "best practice" lessons, suggestions, and resources as teachers begin to share with each other
6. to showcase student work

I invite you to look through these 3 great examples, and consider trying this yourself! I'm sure all of the teachers would love to see comments about their work from someone other than me, so if you have a website, a lesson, or just want to say "nice job" please comment...and don't forget to comment on the Wednesday Web as well :)
