Here's a good article from mlive.com on the lack of teaching jobs and over-abundance of education majors in Michigan. The comments at the bottom of the page are good as well.

I am a kindergarten teacher from Chicago and this is the second year I am organizing a 50 states Christmas card exchange. I am posting a message today because I am currently looking for a teacher from Michigan to join our project.
Fifty teachers (one from each state) and several possible military base schools from around the world (they only require a regular stamp to send mail to them too) will participate in the 2011 exchange. Teachers will be chosen simply by whoever responds first. I teach kindergarten, but I am opening up the exchange to any classrooms in grades K- 3.
Each teacher will send approximately 50 cards (depending on how many military base schools sign up) and they will receive that many in return. Cards can be store bought or homemade. Along with your card I ask each teacher to prepare a little letter about your classroom as well as a few facts about your state. Last year I really enjoyed this project and my students learned so much about the United States (and Japan too because of our Air Force base participant). I had over half of the teachers from last year sign up again immediately to join the project.
As people reserve their spot/state I am typing all of the addresses in to an Avery label format in Microsoft Word so all you have to do is print the labels and send the cards!
I am planning on emailing the label format sheets to all teachers during the first week in November and I am asking all teachers to mail their cards no later than the last week in November. I want all teachers to be able to enjoy all of their cards throughout the entire month of December.
Last year I printed a large map of the United States (I can send you link to a free one) and I made a huge bulletin board surrounded with cards. We colored in the states one by one as we received our cards. My kids learned so much during this project last year and my parents loved hearing about the “states of the day”.
If you would like to participate please e-mail me at Amykdel2 at aol dot com with the following info:
