Teacher Resource

For this task we were to required to work in a group and create a wiki of a teacher resource. Doa'a, Hannah, Qian and I created a wiki called 'the life cycle of a frog'.

If you click the YouTube video above you will get a quick, brief overview of the resource wiki. The wiki that we created will provide you with:
- curriculum alignment
- lesson plans, lesson content, lesson materials
- required worksheet and powerpoints
- basically everything you will need to teach 'the life cycle of a frog' to your students succcesfully.

If it appeals to you click here to access the entire teacher resource wiki. It will tell you all you need to know on how to teach the life cycle of a frog.
