Alabama Learning Exchange (ALEX)

You may be wondering what ALEX is. Well ALEX is a very useful web tool for teachers, students, and parents. It is a completely free website to view course of study, helpful and reliable search tools, and great lesson plans for teachers. Some websites may be hard to understand or to use. That is something great I discovered about ALEX. It was extremely easy to use. You can simply got to http://alex.state.al.us and find tools for you and your student.

When I was in elementary school there was no such thing as ALEX. There was something else I could use and that was the Homework Hot line. On many nights that hot line came in handy especially when I made it to fractions. I see ALEX as the new homework hot line. It is a great and reliable way to get help in school when you need it. You may see why it is handy for students but why for teachers? My mother is a teacher and I see her come home on some days and wonder how she can do something fresh and fun with her class. In this case ALEX would come in handy. It has where you can chat with other teachers and see what they are doing so you can keep your class having a great time while learning. I do hope you have an idea about how helpful and useful ALEX can really be. So if you ever get stuck with school work you know where to go!

About Me

My name is Amanda Bentley. I was born and raised in Bayou La Batre, Alabama. Some of you may know the town from the movie Forrest Gump, but I promise you it does not look like that. God blessed me with a wonderful family. My mother is a teacher and my biggest influence in my life. I am at South Alabama to become an Elementary School teacher. I feel sometimes that I will never finish with school but my dreams will help through the rough spots. For the time being I work at Circuit City in Mobile. So if you ever go in there stop by customer service and see me. I love the company. My best friend is my sister, we are two years apart and get along great. This was her first year at South Alabama and I think I was more nervous for her first day than on mine. But hey that is what big sisters are for. So there you have it. A little bit of Amanda in a nut shell.
