Thanks for reading my post! DonorsChoose.org is a simple way to fulfill needs and foster innovation in our public schools. At this nonprofit website, teachers submit ideas for experiences and materials that their students need to learn. These ideas become reality when concerned individuals, whom we call Citizen Philanthropists, choose projects to fund. DonorsChoose.org has raised and directed more than $14 million to classrooms.
My class will be reading the story the Gingerbread Man and doing a project with it. I am asking if anyone would mind assisting with this... if you would like to please email me at [email removed].
Project letter: My name is the Gingerbread Man, my friend in CLass 2H was reading a story about me and i jumped out of the storybook to visit you. My friend at school is wondering where I have run to. Please help them by sending them a picture postcard showing them the area where you live. This postcard will be posted on a large map of the world outside of my classroom. This will help the children by showing them how different parts of the world look. I know my friends will enjoy hearing from you and learning where I have run! Thank you for your help! Got to go! The Gingerbread Man

To North Dakota language arts teachers: Those who are interested in looking at a new book about teaching English, Grammar Today: The New American Language and Grammar Primer, have the opportunity to request a coomplimentary review copy. The book, which claims that traditional grammar will not automatically improve student writing and speaking skills, still suggests that teaching grammar can be beneficial. One of the most important ways is to improve student styles in various communication situations. Those who wish to receive a copy can email author Richard Betting at [email removed].
There is a great deal of talk about getting good people to take up teaching, esp for the 'STEM' course areas. I have seen where some rural areas are so desperate for teachers in math and science that they allow their own students to fill in the vacancies. Estimates are that there will be very large gaps in the available talent pool of certified teachers. Many jurisdictions have got the message and are attracting talented but non-certified professionals from gov't and industry.
I am an excellent teacher in the fields of science ( physics, chem, Earth sciences) , math, and engineering.
Would I be able to teach in some area of ND if I were to relocate here???
Would greatly apprec comments by knowledgeble folks.
As part of a graduate research project, I need to gather data from current teachers. I’m researching the use of technology in the classroom and what factors affect it. If you could just take a few minutes to complete my survey, I’d appreciate it. The survey is online and has 15 questions.
Hello all! I'm looking for an elementary class that is interested in a postcard exchange project. If you, or someone you know, is interested please let me know. I'm missing a participant for your state.
For this exchange, we will all send a postcard to the other 49 state participants during the school year that contains a real-life (not kid-drawn) picture of their state (or a feature of the state) and some fun facts for the students to learn. (I saw vistaprint.com had some good deals on state postcards bought in bulk). Once I gather all the state participants, I'll forward the addresses of everyone before school starts (in label format so you can peel and stick). In this email I will let everyone know what month they are to send their cards out. This way we get them throughout the year. I will also try my best to send a friendly reminder at the beginning and end of the month for those who are to send out to help remind everyone.
Please email me with the following information so I can mark you down as the participant for your state.
Your name (with appropriate abbr. Miss, Ms., Mrs., Mr.) Your school name Your school address Your grade level
If you have any other questions, please feel free to email me at [email removed])!

Only 1 elementary classroom from each state will be represented & it's on a 1st come, 1st serve basis. Email me immediately ([email removed]!
Once I add you to my state list and close that state, I will send you a confirmation email (Yippee) that you've made it in!
When all 50 states are represented I will compose a mailing list and email it to you. I will create the state list in a label ready format for you to just print out!
You will be mailing 49 postcards(ask for postcard & postage donations from PTA/PTO, parents, grants, etc.)
Postcards should start to be be mailed out in September. All postcards should be postmarked by Friday, December 19, 2008. This works out to be about 3-4 postcards per week which is definatly managable.
If your interested, and serious about following through, please email me:
Your name Grade Level school name school address
*(Also let me know if you'd like to be in this exchange annually or not. This way we can secure a base of states for the following school year!)
I will let you know if you've made it into this exchange.
Come join in on the fun and endless teaching opportunities that await you AND your students!
Well-organized, reliable postcard exchange in its second year needs a teacher from the Peace Garden State! This is a fun, rewarding, and easy project that you don't want to miss!!
