Hi, I am currently organizing a postcard exchange project for the 2010-2011 school year. (In case you don't know what this is, it is a chance for you to share really cool facts about your state with the 49 other states. You also get to learn about 49 other states and classrooms because you will in return get a postcard from each of the other states...See MoreHi, I am currently organizing a postcard exchange project for the 2010-2011 school year. (In case you don't know what this is, it is a chance for you to share really cool facts about your state with the 49 other states. You also get to learn about 49 other states and classrooms because you will in return get a postcard from each of the other states.) Great geography lesson! This year, we won't be starting this project until January 2011. Many people had a hard time getting started at the beginning of the school year last year. We had a really successful turnout though. I am just filling slots for the teachers who haven't reponded back that they want to participate again. I will be providing a lot of information and ideas to you as soon as the slots have all been filled. If you are interested in committing to this project, please email me and give me your full name, school name, school address, grade you teach, and an email address that you check frequently. I will respond back to you. Once you are on board, you will need to get 49 state postcards for the project. Start looking now!! Some have a hard time finding the postcards. You can also make your own at Vistaprint.com.
I also am organizing a leaf exchange project starting in October 2010. If you are interested in this project let me know and I will write your information down and get back to you as soon as I have at least 30 participants. You will need to think of at least three different types of trees that you could use. In a snipit, you would press enough leaves for at least 30 participants and then glue each one on a 6x6 card, which will need to be laminated and labled with both the tree name and state it comes from. More details to come. Please email if you are a serious participant. Thanks
Looking for a second grade class from your state to do a Post Card Exchange. If interested email me your name, School/address and school email. I will send more info later. tu

I have just published my first children's book, and using my talents as a Reading Specialist have developed interdisciplinary activities, as well as before, during, and after reading activities for the classroom. There are vocabulary activities and opportunities for your students to write to me about the book and its characters. I am glad to respond to those letters at your request. A physical disability permits me from teaching in the classroom anymore, so I am reaching out to students this way. The main goal of this book is also the part of my job I miss the most: instilling a love of reading and learning in each student. I can visit your classroom by Skype, if you wish, and our website is about to go online. There, you will be able to access the acitivities I spoke of earlier. The obok is called Harley Hits a Homer, and I am so pleased with the positive way it is being received in the classrooms where it is being used. I'd love to hear from you if you think we could work together on this project. I'd love to hear from your classes and to interact with them. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Let's keep them reading, Tena
