What I learned in this class...

This class has taught me a lot. One of the most important things I learned in this class is the significance of literacy. It is apparent everywhere, in everyday life. We as teachers must stress this and incorporate literacy as much as we can in our lesson plans and activities. I also realized that my content area, art involves much more literacy than I had previously thought. After realizing this and creating a unit plan, I will use this knowledge to incorporate literacy in all of my teaching. The unit plan was definitely a new experience for me. Although, it was kind of a pain, I have definitely benefited from it and hope to someday use in the classroom.
