A great tool that I believe all teachers should take advantage of is this website: http://www.suelebeau.com/freetools.htm. This site is absolutely amazing. It gives teachers free tools to make teaching a little easier. It is almost like cheating a little, but is extremely helpful when a teacher needs a quick fix, or draws a blank to a homework assignment. It is easy to use, very efficient, reliable, and has great outcomes! You have all different choices to choose from to aid you in creating a successful classroom.

Sue Lebeau is a website that lets teachers create questions, quizzes, exams, games, and multiple choose questions. All you have to do is type in the information, and it will literally generate questions for you to ask or put on a test if you can't come up with any. It will create an entire quiz or exam for you! It even makes multiple choice questions for you, and generates fun games for the classroom. It is the website any teacher would dream of. It is a great tool for teachers to use so their class is always productive.

Excel is a newly found program of mine, that I only know a little about. This past week in eme2040 was the very first time I ever used excel. It is useful, but I find it very confusing. I like how you can organize numbers, and how it does equations for you, but since I will be teaching an elementary level classroom, I doubt I will really be using it with my students. It is hard for me to understand, so the only way I could use it in elementary school, is to create charts on it for the kids to see, and use it for calculating grades for myself.
