         When I first utilized Diigo I was a bit confused with the format of the website. Once I got past that, I began browsing and I realized that its a great platform for researching because it allows you to save, annotate, and organize different websites.

       I feel prepared to teach the ELA standards that have to do with writing and grammar. For example: teaching how to compose an informative essay or how to use proper conventions. I believe I am ready to teach those standards because of the amount of literature and English classes I have already taken that have given me the necessary skills to teach it to others. Definitely the standard that I would require more knowledge on would be conducting a collaborative discussion amongst students. I would need more information on this topic because conducting a discussion requires proper planning that I still need to learn more about.       The CPALMS educator Toolkits provide many useful resources for variety of school subjects that are essential in student learning. The interactive vocabulary mastery tool for 6th graders provides the students with a multitude of benefits. With this tool students will be able to take a 30 minute practice test on new vocab...
