So you're an English teacher.  Now What?
I am going to be an English teacher so I thought I would included a list of helpful web sites for English teachers.  There are lots of great ideas for teaching English on the Internet so if the sites I have included are not particularly useful for you look for your own ideas through a search engine.  I hope you learn some new ideas, and have fun implementing them in your own classroom.
National Council of Teachers of English - This is a great support organization for English teachers.
A Word A Day - Vocabulary is such an important part of developing the English language, and this site has a new word posted every day.  This is a great way to find new words to teach your students.
Word Central - Here is another good site for acquiring a better vocabulary.
Works of Shakespeare - This web site lists the complete works of Shakespeare, and it is great if you are looking for that hard to find poem or play to use with your class.
Home
How to Write a Compare/Contrast Paper - This "how to" site is helpful in teaching about compare/contrast papers.
Punctuation Rules - For those of us who can't always remember correct usage, this site offers rules of punctuation from the Citadel.
Elements of Style - A good online style guide.
Poetry Unit - Here is a unit plan for a poetry unit that I have created.
