Recently Barack Obama discussed the value of National Board Certified Teachers. I am happy to see that he is supporting excellence in teaching. Having gone through the process of National Board certification I can attest to the impact it had on me. National Board certification is an intense and personal journey that many teachers have decided to embark upon. Those that achieve it feel empowered to better meet the needs of their students. So, just what is National Board certification anyway? Here are two links I suggest you visit to get further information on National Board certification -
National Board Council of New York

http://www.nbpts.orgI would like to offer support to you as you work toward your certification. I am available to answer questions you may have about the process. I also would love to network with other NBPTS teachers and candidates.

I am a Reading Specialist in North Carolina. I am just beginning the National Boards process. I am nervous but anxious to get started. Do you have any ideas for one particular entry that involves integrating speaking, listening and viewing through an interdisciplinary lesson using technology? Any advise or suggestions would be much appreciated.
