A class web site can be a creative way of getting my students excited about a subject, keeping them up to date on assignments, and providing them with valuable online resources. Because a class site should be engaging, I'll present information that makes the subject interesting and fun, such as brain teasers or polls about current events. Of course, I'll want to include plenty of links so that my students can explore a wealth of ideas on the web.

 

As the new year begins, I'm looking forward to teaching my 8th graders an exciting curriculum that deals with speed, acceleration, velocity, and properties of matter.  For my honor students, we will be diving into chemistry instead of properties of matter.

 

I am hoping we will have a productive and an educational year.
