Standards+Aligned+System+(SAS)

The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) has a great website called the Standards Aligned System (SAS) where educators can go to find standards, resources and lesson plans. This website is very user friendly and very helpful when it comes to finding activities to accompany certain standards. Everything thing you need is in one place and is a very great tool for teachers.

Below is a math lesson on counting coins for 2nd grade that Lindsay, Anna and I created for the PDE SAS website.

Below is a link to a lesson plan that I evaluated for the PDE SAS website. The lesson plan was found on the Discovery Education website, was for a 4th grade class and was all about flowers. I liked this lesson plan because it incorporated technology by including a video at the beginning of class and then having the students research a plant of their choice using the internet when completing an activity. I believe this lesson would work well in a real classroom setting.
