Does anyone have any ideas on lesson plans for teaching computers to grades 1 thru 6?We Answered:
My son did small projects. They kept a journal last year (gr 3) and were encouraged to use graphics.For excel, you could use it when the math teacher is covering tables.
I don't know that they teach Power Point until grade 6 or 7 in my area.
Here are the websites I found:

Why should educators differentiate their teaching style and lesson plans?We Answered:
In any single class, there will be students who have different learning styles. Some have to see a word written down. Some remember what they hear. Others remember visual images. And some need kinetic experiences. Many students learn words set to music more easily.As you say, there are also different types of intelligence, including musical intelligence, artistic and right-brain appreciation.
Apart form all that, it's more stimulating (less boring) to have variety.

Is there a forum where teachers in India can get ideas for lesson plans or share ideas related to teaching?We Answered:
There is a new forum that is designed specifically for teachers (and others involved in education in India) called educatorslog.in (http://educatorslog.in). The idea is to provide a space for teachers, parents and others to share ideas and resources that are contextually relevant to teaching in India. It is meant to be a community forum for teachers, parents and educators in India.The resources that are being shared are websites, books, articles, and organizations, and they are all "tagged" and organized by subject and grade level, so I'm sure you'll find lots of curriculum ideas for whichever grade and subjects you are planning to teach. You could also pose questions there, and add resources (that you may find), too!
There is also information on education programs for in-service and pre-service professional development in India.
It is a great resource for homeschooling in India as well, as not all resources shared by homeschooling networks and forums in the US and elsewhere are relevant to teaching and homeschooling in India (as you rightly pointed out).
Good luck with your teaching!

Where can I find lesson plans on teaching a Letter of Intoduction to high school sophomores?We Answered:
First, let me apologize up front for a glitch with Y!A and the ability to hyperlink to the sites I have put in the source section. This has been ongoing for a few days now.An introduction letter or letter of introduction is a letter that is used to introduce one party to a second party. There are three main types of introduction letters; business-to business, business-to-customer, and personal introduction letters.
7 tips for writing an effective introduction letter to introduce yourself
Whenever possible, address your letter to a specific person.
Begin your letter by stating your name and your position or role, if relevant.
Tell how you got the reader’s name, if applicable.
Give the purpose for your letter.
Indicate what it is that you hope to accomplish by sending your letter (for example, setting up a time that you can meet in person with the reader) or what you would like the reader to do in response to your letter (such as grant you an interview).
Include any other important information about yourself or the purpose of your letter (such as your contact information, brief history of your organization, your goals, or the like).
Close by thanking the person, and end on a positive note.
Above tells you basically what an introduction letter is, but a cover letter is usually something that goes on top of a report to summarize what is in the report, and indorsed by someone in power, i.e., a CEO or military commander. Also, Introduction letters should not be confused with cover letters that are used to transmit resumes and curriculum vitae and various business documents.

Where can I find lesson plans on teaching a Letter of Introduction to high school sophomores?We Answered:
Never, in my many decades, have I needed to write a letter of introduction, read a letter of introduction, or known anyone else who had ever written a letter of introduction. A cover letter for a resume would be of more value to your students - they'll probably use that someday.Jeffery Said:
I plan on teaching next year and have a question about lesson plans.?We Answered:
Lesson planning was my most time-consuming task when I started teaching. So you're smart to start thinking about where all of those plans will come from.Certainly teachers teaching the same subject(s)/grade level you teach will be a valuable source. So making associations with similar teachers, regardless of the schools they work at, will be very valuable to you.
To start, identify the units you will be teaching. Plug the lessons you already have into those units. Then you'll have a good idea of what you still need.
In addition to other teachers, your state's education website and other lesson planning websites have excellent resources.
I've written up a list of the top 12 websites I've used for lesson planning. You'll find reviews and links to them here:

Many subject-matter websites for kids also have lesson plans and activities for teachers. There is an extensive listing on LearningReviews.com. The left-side menu guides you to the subject area, and to Teacher Tools, with many more lesson planning resources:
