Teacher to Teacher: Linking it Up!
The world wide web is such a great place to gather information and find just about anything you could ever possibly need for your classroom. In fact there is so much information it would be nice if there was a site that you could follow to serve as a guide or informational hub of sorts! That is exactly my purpose for creating this blog. I plan to, as I search the net for information, put all my findings as links so that the hard work is already done for you. You will then just be able to stop by and check out my blog for anything it has to offer you concerning elementary science and new technologies.
