Fading Ad Blog Rotating Header Image

Thanks for the feedback!

Scott- At first I was going to use this blog as a trial to just play with ideas of what I would do for a classroom blog and I’ve decided to use this blog as an educational tool. I’m busy writing the actual “paper” but this posting could serve as an abstract. I want this Fading Ad Blog to address many of the different issues I have with today’s curriculum. One of them is the poor attempt on the Department of Education to administer a meaningful and informative HIV/AIDS curriculum that will really educate students about safe behaviors. Additionally, I will integrate Science, New York Studies, World Studies, Mapping Skills, and Art & Photography, as well as Memoir as a Personal Document. Right now, I teach second through fifth grade but this new certification will be K-12. Eventually I would like to teach older students, having already taught middle school. I’m enjoying elementary and it will be a challenge to tailor this blog to address perhaps a fourth grade curriculum and keep it age appropriate. I think I am going to have fun with this one.

    You know what Frank?! I am so happy that you have begun this endeavor! I totally agree with you in that the HIV/AIDS curriculum is inadequate.
    I feel that both parents and the Dept. of Ed. seriously need consider the environment in which todays students live. They still seem to be living in black and white, when in reality they are blinded by the “color” in todays world.
