The ELA technology standard that I feel most prepared to teach is Write to explain// inform, I am most comfortable with writing and helping people understand/ comprehend . However I am not as comfortable with multimedia and using digital media. Therefore, that is something that will require me to gain more knowledge on first and then I will be ready to teach that as well.
