Who is this guy!?!

I am a student teacher from Willamette University. During the Spring Semester, I will be teaching three classes at McKay: American Literature (6th), English Skills Review (7th) and Fundamentals of Acting (3rd). If you need to get in touch with me on campus, I will be either in Room 227, 228 or the auditorium. Most of my time outside of class will be spent in Room 227. Here's to a great semester!

Welcome!

So,

You've found yourself smack dab in the middle of a class with a crazy student teacher! Lucky for you! After class today, I hope you have a better idea of who I am as a teacher. We are going to be on the semester journey together, I hope that we can learn from each other on a daily basis. This blog is set up for this class to help facilitate that learning in this new technological age!

Well, I'll let you know a little about the use of this blog. As a class, we will be discussing various books this semester and we will have a variety of in class assignments. This blog will be a great resource for you to use to keep up on things that you may have forgotten about from class. Check in for:
  • Resources from class (websites used, online links to documents / useful websites)
  • Recaps of the lesson from the day
  • Forecasts of the next day's lesson
  • Linked documents from class
Your parents can also use the blog as a resource from home to check on what we are doing in class!

Please feel free to check this blog and post questions that you might have as comments. This is a great way to get in contact with Mr. Myers as well!

Here's to a great semester!
