Google Reader

I added the following feeds to my Google Reader account from Google News: education and technology, Henry VIII, teaching grammar, and Tom Sawyer. I also selected "education and schools" from The New York Times site. Sometimes I find articles that relate to the novels we are studying in language arts, which is why I selected the Henry VIII and the Tom Sawyer feeds. It's always interesting to share these articles with the my students, and it's a great way to connect their reading to nonfiction writing. I have never used Google Reader, but using it to find articles, podcasts, and blogs related to literature is something I plan to try.

  1. I also like to relate what I'm doing in class to current events. This seems like an easy way to find some current articles.
