Changes to the “art of teaching”

The Kenan Fellows Program has taught me that even though I am alone in my classroom when teaching- I am never alone in my profession. This program has made me aware of the resources available to teachers….technology, curriculum, and friends!

I will no longer approach a unit of curriculum in my classroom without first asking the following questions:

“What careers do this unit relate to?”

“What organization/business/ or individual could help me find more information on this topic?”

“How can I involve technology into this lesson?”

Each of these questions will help my students prepare for the “real world,” and no, I don’t mean the television show.

I thank the Kenan Fellows Program for opening my eyes to the world outside of my classroom.
