Media Monday - Vol. 19
Using eResources at Jeter for Lesson Planning
How to use eResources to Enhance your Lessons - Plant Example
We are very lucky in Alvin ISD that the district provides us with great online resources. They are here for not only your students but for your lesson planning. We also have Jeter purchased eResources along with eBooks. I have been answering a lot of questions about books and more on plants this week so decided to create this Media Monday to show you all the online and print resources available to you and how you can search them for this one topic. Click on the Students/Online Library Resources link below to access district databases.
