About Me.....

Hi my name is Shannon Smith and right now I am a sophomore here at the University of South Alabama. My major is Special Education grades 6-12. I plan on getting a degree in all levels of Special Education, but 6-12 is my main interest so I decided that I wanted to start off getting that degree. I came to South Alabama from Katy, Texas where I spent much of my time in high school helping out with the special education classes. My senior year of high school I also did a program called Ready, Set, Teach where I spent three hours every morning observing and student teaching in all elementary grade level classes. We got to create small and large group lesson plans and we had to use them in different classrooms and create them according to what the students were learning at the time. I am very excited about becoming a Special Education teacher and the experience that I have had so far has given me a good idea of what I am going to be doing!

Dr. Strange's Class

My time in Dr. Strange's class has really made me think about how I want to organize my classroom. I have come up with many ideas on how I want to involve technology in my classroom and teaching strategies. Though getting the students involved in technology will be a little more difficult with special education, I feel it is an important part of their learning process. Thanks to Dr. Strange's class I have the tools on a computer that I can use in my classroom as a future teacher.
