I too do not know if I should put this under this heading or under questions and answers, but i feel that this is more of a concern than a question. When we were at Ponca Park we talked as a class about standards. We talked about the differences in state and national and then we also pulled apart the stands so that we could understand what they actually meant. Now in math class we are learning how to understand the language. My concern is that we are pretty far in our careers of becoming teachers, and we all know that we have written many many lesson plans for other classes. Why is it now that we are learning how to read and understand the standards? I am now asking myself if I have connected all the lesson plans to the right standards. I feel that this is something that should be done in a earlier class. Maybe education foundations? what do you think??

Megan, I agree that the introduction to the standards should probably have been done in an earlier class. But in most of our classes, the professors were mainly trying to teach us how to put a lesson plan together and what all needs to be included in lesson plans for different subjects. I don't think that the standards were the main concern yet. Now that we are understanding the standards, we can edit and add to our lessons so that they are following the standards.
