Reflection-Final

I have enjoyed doing the blog.  It has allowed me to reflect more about what is going on in my classroom and how I can improve.  I am going to try to keep this blog, and turn it into a way to communicate with my students and parents.  I communicate with them through email, conferences, phone calls, etc, but what a great way to post pictures and do things a little more creatively! This would also give me more opportunities to post "homework help" and games for my parents and students to use.  I can definitely see how this might be a great asset to incorporate this technology into my classroom.

What to expect...

Besides reading books on becoming an effective teacher and how to have good classroom management, this is a book I have been diving into.  This 4th edition book is a great reference for any expectant mother.  Heidi Murkoff, the author, rewrote every section of this book, updating the questions asked and answered, and giving it a fresh perspective.  It answers a wide variety of questions, from telling your work about your pregnancy and nutritional tips to the emotional, physical and sexual developments and changes you go through.  Over 90% of pregnant women are said to have read this book, and I understand why.  This book has helped me (and my husband) in preparing us for what is happening with the baby as well as answering those important questions, like how to deal with the emotional roller coaster spells I periodically have.  :)
