Cooperative Learning Resources

Here are some of the resources I was telling you about in class Monday. I didn't end up using all of them for my presentation, but some of these sites are so incredibly helpful that I wanted to pass them along anyway. Even if you don't have time to visit any others, take 30 seconds to check out the first one--Oregon's resources for new teachers. It's great!

I had a good time with you on Monday. Thanks so much for being patient with my cough! =)
