1. I believe that there are a couple standards that I would feel comfortable teaching in a classroom. The main one is RI.5, "Text Structure" Informational Text. It focuses on grades 1st-3rd and since i want to teach Elementary, this is perfect. It focuses on electronic menus and search bars, which is a common skill to have. Also how to locate information through the icons they are assigned. It also shows how to use common search tools and hyperlinks which I am pretty comfortable with. 

2. I would like to use as much technology software I can as a future teacher. I will use power point, but I would like to take it a step further and use graphics, music, and games that will be Incorporated into my presentation. This way it addresses all students and provides tools for visual and verbal learning students to succeed and gain as much information from the lesson. Also, it will help them keep the students entertained and engaged on what we are learning about. This will work for an Elementary school setting and classrooms. This way it is meeting the ELA Standards for this particular age group. 

3. I really liked the Newsletter Assignment because it is something I want to incorporate into my future teaching career. It is a great way to reach out to parents and keep them informed on what is happening in the classroom. I was able to work on formatting a lot and how to insert images while providing text and borders as well. I was able to correctly insert columns and make sure to get as much information as possible into a couple documents.
