One of the websites that I visited was called "Math In Daily Life." I think that this website will contribute tremendously in the future for me because in math class especially there is always one or more students that asks the question 'how are we going to use this in the real world.' This websites gives multiple examples on a wide range of topics. The examples include probability, to area, to money, and even exponential growth and cooking. With this usual website I feel a math teacher will always be able to answer that question no matter what the grade or subject. I enjoyed it so much I even put a link up on my blog.
Some new skills that I have acquired since last class are being more hands on with word. Because of the new assignment we have I have had to become extremely familiar with columns and personalizing a newsletter. In addition, I learned how to add links to my blog page. So far I have two links. Microsoft Word is giving me some trouble but hopefully with the useful links that Mr. Gentile gave us I will hopefully be able to get through it and eventually master it.
I felt that all of the links were interesting. I didn't even know that there were resources like that available. I am so thankful to live in a society that is advanced enough to have a tool such as the Reading Pen. This tool does so much for almost every learning disability. It makes a word bigger, it can spell aloud a word and say it. The Reading Pen even can be used by either left or right handed students and has a version for ESL students that translates words. This pen is extremely innovative and useful.
