As an educator I am always looking for new, innovative and effective ways to teach lessons. I have had many opportunities to go to conferences, workshops and schools to learn exciting approaches and techniques. I can say without a doubt that I learn most when I see something in action! Unfortunately, sometimes the life of a teacher makes it very difficult to leave the classroom and take the time to visit other schools or classrooms to observe the variety of teaching styles and techniques being used. Why not take professional development into your own hands...
I came across this website today that thrilled me! The Teaching Channel houses a variety of videos on teaching in action. It is organized by subject, grade and topic to make your searching easy. They even have a section dedicated to common core aligned lessons. The teachers that are in the videos are from all across our American schools and are considered highly effective and innovative educators.
I would highly recommend taking a peek at some videos; you may become inspired to try something new!
You can also sign up for their weekly newsletter, which will remind you to visit the site once in a while or follow them on twitter...@TeachingChannel
