Union Offers New Educator Resource Created By Teachers, For Teachers

6/20/2012

Looking for a new way to introduce a concept in the classroom? Or do you need some fresh ideas to help a struggling student? A new resource now available from the American Federation of Teachers can help.

The AFT has joined with Britain’s TES Connect to offer Share My Lesson, an exciting new tool created by teachers, for teachers that allows educators at all grade levels to upload their own lesson plans, download other educators’ resources, and rate and review resources on the site - all at no charge. This new platform provides an online community where teachers can freely share resources with each other.

Register today to access and upload lesson plans on Share My Lesson.

Share My Lesson will include a dedicated resource bank for the Common Core State Standards, which are coming to Illinois, 45 other states and Washington, D.C. in the fall. Lesson plans designed around the new standards will be available soon.

Currently, the site offers more than 200,000 educator resources. By joining Share My Lesson you can download plans provided by other educators, but also add your own to the site’s growing resources.
