Teaching tolerance is a research website and is back by the organization called learning

for justice. Learningforjustice.org is an organization paid for and supported the by the federal

government. This website uses its resources to put together lesson plans. It uses the latest

publications, academic journals, and research articles to build and structure a learning

environment that teachers can use. Collectively it pulls its resources together and gets teachers

and educators alike the chance to develop workshops, sit in webinars, listen to educational

podcasts, and build on already historical educational environment.

Going through and looking at all that this website has to offer it is clear that the student

learning address comes first. Although it does not have a lot of technological skill behind it the

foundation of resources is there. As a new teacher this organization has put together and

structured this resource website into something that is easy to use and very accessible. I can

definitely see this website having a huge impact on young learners.

The truth about voting is a lesson plan that comes from a teaching tolerance. And this is a place

students will be able to recognize common myths about voting in the United States by the end of

the lesson. Students will also understand the affix of less information about voting and then also

attend a lesson students that are eligible to vote will be able to register. One way I can make this

lesson better by tying into modern day issues.

Too often today students don’t know where their votes count and how they’re counted along

the electoral college. That way students can see how the voting demographic is broken up and

where are each vote goes towards the presidency.
