The document discusses resources for teachers and how to find them. It identifies potential resources as including the internet, school resource rooms, human networks, communities, museums, libraries, and textbooks. It recommends teachers communicate with professional learning communities, principals, lead teachers, curriculum designers, and mentor teachers within their school for help finding resources. Non-instructional personnel like psychologists, counselors, and therapists can also serve as resources.
