Journal 3

The ELA standard I feel most prepared to teach about is Prezi. Throughout my time in school, I have become very familiar with the software and think it is a great interactive tool for students. Prezi allows students to make more creative control over their slides than other software like Google Slides. One standard I feel less prepared for is teaching students how to use online data analysis tools. That would be something I have to experiment and teach to myself before I could properly assist a student trying to use the software efficiently.
One of the tools I would use in my classroom from CPALMS is the pre-made lesson plans. As a new teacher, it would give a good launching pad into a topic and give me ideas on how to create my own lesson plans for that specific topic in the future. Also, it would allow students to have access to an in-depth view of that topic. Overall, CPALMS is a great resource for teachers and students of all grade levels and subjects.
A new skill I required from the Newsletter assignment was how to make columns. Previously I would always use two text boxes to mimic the appearance of columns. Figuring out how to keep the layout of everything else in the spot that I want it to be. By watching videos and tinkering with the column function I was able to get true columns made on my Newsletter. Overall, I was really happy with how it turned out and I'm glad I learned how to use that function.
