Blog Post #1: Resourceful Blog

I found a blog, created by an Elementary School teacher Kelly Mikesell, that has different ideas of lessons and activities I can do in my future elementary classroom setting.  Her blog has different resources where teachers can get ideas from and use.  For example, she posted some of the activities for different content areas like writing, reading, math, science, and etc. that I think can easily be implemented in any classroom.  She also posted short video clips of her classroom arrangement, centers, and activities she did with her students.
I think Mikesell's blog can be helpful in my future teaching career since I can borrow the activities she does with her students to make learning more enjoyable and fun instead of boring.  For example, I really liked her idea of using Math Tub that allowed students to play and learn instead of making them do paper work.  Not only that, but she has other teachers' website links that I can visit to get more ideas for different lessons and activities.
