This is an article written by Thomas R. Kratochwill, Rachel DeRoos, and Samantha Blair of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. This talks about the importance of motivation and management and is a guide on how to do these things and studies done to show proof of effectiveness.

This is a link covering multiple teachers write ups of their first year in the field and what they suggest to do and not do. It's a basic overview of what they believed in the class vs what they experienced which is a great write up and a great thing to read over before starting your first year.

Chapter 14 Reflection
Chapter 14 goes into what makes an effective teacher. I think Dr. Woolfolk had great views on what makes an effective teacher but I think there's just too much to write about what makes an effective teacher and that's because of how in-depth it is. And at the end of the day an effective teacher is just someone who gets the lesson from their minds to their students in a way that's easy for the student to keep the information in mind.

Cell structure
This lesson covers all fourof the learning objectives in a nice sequence of lessons.
Itcovers cognitive by covering a topic they know but don't understand yet. It covers effective learning by allowing the students to first learn and understand the basics of cell structure and it's functions. The third part of the lessons covers behavioral learning by allowing them to conceptualize the material. The final part allows them to use psycho motor in the fact that they have to now create a model showing all of these parts of the cell using their understanding.
