I teach a group of 18 2nd graders in Asheville, N.C. We would like to set up email penpals with other second graders (age 7-8) in other parts of the United States or in Japan. Please email me ASAP so that we can match up students as quickly as possible. Thanks Carol H.
I'm interested in developing a project for my g/t student in which they set up a classroom economy; they'd use play money to pay wages for different classroom jobs/responsibilities and to pay bonuses, etc. The students would also use the money to pay for certain things, such as priveleges. I thought the g/t students could organize it; they could be in control of the "bank" and report to the class periodically using posters, transparencies, power points, etc. to explain the financial status of the class. Their presentations would include different types of graphs to show how the class is earning or spending their money.
It's been suggested that I use a rubric for grading purposes.

What kind of professional development should be added to school? What kind of Literacy strategies nowadays teachers are teaching to students? regards Umbareen

My name is Courtney Wright and I am a graduate of Peabody College of Vanderbilt with secondary certification (7-12) in English. Currently, I am a graduate student at Northwestern University working under the direction of Dr. Michael E. Roloff in the Department of Communication Studies with a concentration in Interaction and Social Influence. For my 2nd year project, Professor Michael E. Roloff and I are conducting a research study entitled, Classroom justice, principled dissent, and tenure status: Instructor reactions to perceived unfairness (IRB Project # 0423-055). The purpose of this research study is to explore instructor perceptions of, and reactions to, justice violations within school policies and procedures.
I am in need of a population to sample and thus I am asking you, my fellow educators, if you would be willing to volunteer for my study and complete a questionnaire (the link is provided below). I am very interested in having your viewpoints included in this study and would greatly appreciate your being willing to spare a little bit of your time to help a fellow educator and hardworking graduate student. The Northwestern University Institutional Review Board (IRB) has approved this research study and your participation will be completely confidential.
Please be gracious enough to complete and return the questionnaire [link provided below] via email. Directions to guide you through this technological process are included below. Because this is a “snowball” survey, we (Professor Roloff and myself) would appreciate it if you would forward this email to at least two fellow educators, one with tenure status and one without. We will appreciate any, and all input we receive regarding instructor perceptions of justice violations in school policies and procedures. Thank you in advance for your support!

JUSTICE VIOLATIONS IN SCHOOL POLICY QUESTIONNAIRE: [link removed]
I worked for a Sylvan Learning Center while I was in law school and I think they are wonderful. They are diagnostic and perscriptive and strive to get rid of skill gaps. though I did not receive a high salary, they were very fair.
I learned a lot about about their policies and most parents were pleased with the services. I now have a five year old I send to a Sylvan Center, and I am now one of those pleased parents. I would never trade my years working for Sylvan Learning Centers.
