Hello, and welcome back to my blog post! In my last blog post I talked about the teaching fifth and sixth graders about the Roaring 20s using the book, What Were the Roaring Twenties? by Michele Mortlock. The lesson plan my partner and I came up with was a powerpoint presentation to introduce what the Roaring 20s were, the assigned book, and finally to wrap this lesson together, a poster project included with a timeline.

What I would like to teach.

American Literature is the best way to learn about different time periods to younger generations. I have an interest in teaching children because I want to be that teacher that the children look up to like when I looked up to my teachers. Teaching also interests me because I want to teach the kids so they can have the confidence of learning so they can be anything they want to be when they get older. Authors that interest me include, Harper Lee and F. Scott Fitzgerald, I’m interested in these two authors because during my high school english classes, these … Continue reading What I would like to teach.
