Oh how wonderful today's technology is. The state of Alabama has formed a website for teachers and students. This website is such a wonderful tool to know about. It can save you time, and ease the day to day process of being a teacher or student. This wonderful tool is the website for the Alabama Learning Exchange which is available at www.alex.state.al.us.
The website is broken down into categories so that you don't spend thirty minutes finding what you are looking for. If you want to find something contained in the Alabama Course of Study, it is right there online, so you won't have to spend endless time searching through the paper copy of it. There is a tool on there that provides a place for you to create and save lesson plans, also a place to see sample lesson plans. This site is just so creative.
Students can access the website also. They can go to different subjects and search for whatever they may need help with. There are also an enormous amount of web links available on the website.
There are many other areas available on ALEX. The website is easy to navigate and has so much useful information. I know as a current student and a future teacher, I will use this website an awful lot.

Who I Am
Hey! Thanks for visiting my blog! Here are a few things you may find interesting about me:
I am in the Secondary Education program at USA. This is my first semester here. I am majoring in Mathematics. My first day has been hectic, but I know it will get better.
I am 34 years old, married, and have 2 children. I live in Uriah, Al, a small town in south Monroe County. My husband is the new principal at J. U. Blacksher High School in Uriah, Al. My daughter, Ashley, is 14 and is very athletic. She plays basketball and softball. My son, Brandon, is 10 and also enjoys sports. He plays football and baseball. So, I spend alot of time at sports events needless to say.
Spending time with my family is one of the things I enjoy the most. This night class is a new experience for us. I have always been able to be at home at night with my children and husband so this is going to take some getting used to. At least it is only one night a week.
A new found hobby for me is taking care of all of our animals. We have 3 dogs, 2 rabbits, 2 turkeys, 7 ducks and about 50 chickens. At first, I wasn't thrilled about all of the chickens, but I have come around and have enjoyed them very much. It is pretty comical to sit and watch all of the animals and the way they will react and interact with you.
