Describe your notebook or file box.
For the project I created a notebook. At first I was really not looking forward to this assignment because it sounded like a lot of research. When I actually started trying to find things for my binder I was surprised that it was actually fun. I never knew how much information and resources were out there. Pretty soon I was printing off everything. Even things that I wasn't sure I would ever need but knew there was a possibility. I loved finding new strategies that I had never heard of and thinking of the ways I could make it work for my students. I think that this assignment is an awesome idea. It forces us to search for strategies on our own and to use critical thinking when applying them to deaf education.
Do you think this will be helpful during student teaching?
I definitely plan on using my binder during student teaching. I even thought about that as I was completing it. I think every strategy that I found could be used with these students. I can't wait to try out some of the new ones that I found. I think I will continue to add to my binder as well. I love having everything in one place so I am able to find it when I need it. I think this project will be so helpful during student teaching and beyond.
