Google Reader Blog Roll

Over the past few weeks I have been following some new blogs.  It has been great to read all the new ideas, education news and tech updates.  I have found it super motivating to get me trying and incorporating new technology to my teaching repertoire. The blog I have found most useful has been  Free Technology for Teachers by Richard Byrne.  His posts have been the ones I have found myself saving most often and I have been trying out the technology he recommends most. He will definitely remain on my "must-read" list.

I have also really enjoyed  LARRY FERLAZZO’S WEBSITES OF THE DAY…For Teaching ELL, ESL, & EFL Quote of the day posts.  These quotes are often thought provoking and encourage looking deeper into the issue. A recent favorite was: 

I love this quote, because in world where standardizing education has become so huge, people forget that standard doesn't have to equal identical. 

The other blogs I followed were:

A Media Specialist's Guide to the Internet "Because you never know when you'll need a cybrarian..."  

Cool Cat Teacher Blog "Teaching students with new tools, enthusiasm, and a belief that teaching is a noble calling"

The Busy Librarian 

TLC = Tech + Library + Classroom "finding ways to bring the three together..."
