New as of 9/14/13!
I am revamping this website in order to use it for my Teaching of Middle and High School English (ENG 405) and Composition Theory and Rhetoric for High School and Junior College Teachers (ENG 520) classes. You will still find all the information from my technology class available, however, I am adding on to the website. The main new sections will be my Discovery Notebook for my 405 class, as well as my Zine for 520. Feel free to check them out!
This is Miss Robey's online English classroom. Please note that I am a pre-service teacher and this website was a project for my technology class. (See the subpage Disclaimers for more information.) The purpose of this project was to help undergrads become associated with the ways technology can be used in a classroom. The purpose of my website will be to supplement what students are doing in class and get students engaged with English (particularly reading and writing) outside of school.
What will you find on this website? First of all, you will find all of the homework I have assigned. This is both for students and for parents’ benefit. I know very well how easily high schoolers forget to write things down. You can also make sure your student doesn’t lie to you when he or she says, “I don’t have any homework.” Second, you will find supplemental information for all of my units. These will be in various forms including videos, PowerPoint, Prezi, book summaries, interviews, perhaps even movie trailers. This is extra information for students, but it can be a great way for parents to keep up with what we’re studying. Another thing you will find is any handout that has been given out in class. This will save everyone time if the original handout goes missing, and also save paper! Finally, students will find a list of helpful websites.
