I'm a second career teacher (44 years old, three years
exp. as a 5th -8th grade teacher ) who moved to Portland
last fall with a full CA CLAD MS credential. It took me
until early spring to obtain a basic OR license and become
comfortable using EDZAPP. I'm willing to accept a job all
but the Southernmost counties and I've sent out electronic
apps and zapps to approximately forty districts with just
one interview request so far. Four years ago when I was
transmitting the same essential data throughout CA (via
EDJOIN), I was averaging three to five interviews a week!
What am I missing? I have added experience, glowing
references from my three year tenure at my former school,
BTSA and COMP certification to my "package" - shouldn't I
be getting some bites? One thing, I felt like I was
getting the brushoff from the district booth gatekeepers
when I attended the Portland job fair. Later in the day,
while washing up in the restroom, I caught a look at my
own, lived in, 44 year old image and suddenly felt a bit
out of place amongst the vast throngs of fresh, youthful
faces around me. I'm trying to quell the demoralizing
impulse to start "shadowboxing" and would like to recieve
some objective, professional input from a person or a
service with the eyes and the inside knowledge, specific
to Oregon's public education system, that might see what
I'm missing. I'm a damn good teacher! However, this whole
experience is starting to get to me. Please help!

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])!
I will be teaching fourth grade in Oregon this year, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a historical fiction novel to start off the year. Thank you for your suggestions!

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.

Hope to hear from you SOON!
