ALEX

ALEX, which stands for Alabama Learning Exchange, is a resource rich Website available to teachers and educators (and the public). Within these pages you can find Courses of Study, Lesson Plans, Distance Learning resources, useful Web Links, and more. The site is very well organized and easy to use. Within minutes you are directed to useful information and by using these links, you stay within the state of Alabama’s approved curriculum.
I found this site to be absolutely essential in preparing for the classroom. Its easy of navigation allows someone, even as internet “un-savvy” as myself, the opportunity to quickly and accurately find information and resources to enhance my classroom. I especially liked have access to lesson plans. This will give me a starting place as I develop my own lesson plans. I also found many very useful links to sites with resources for the classroom. Very cool. If you’ve never visited ALEX, the time has come. You’ll enjoy it.
