This year, we are changing the start time to January to give everyone more time to find postcards and get through the busy holiday season. Our Vermont teacher from last year is changing positions and can't be part of our exchange this year. We are looking for a replacement. If you are an elementary teacher who would like to fill this role, please email me your contact information. I will need your full name, including Mrs., Miss, etc..., your school name, your school address, your email address which you can check throughout the summer, and the grade level you teach. Once you are accepted on our team, you will need to find 49 or 50 postcards from your state. More details will be coming with project ideas etc...
Thanks! Erin

Hopefully you are all excited about this coming school year! I know I am my usual excited with an ounce of anxiety! Even after ten years of teaching, I still feel anxious as each new year begins as I anticipate my new classes and all the new faces that will come in my classroom door. Still, I am comforted in knowing the anxiety will go away as soon as I settle in the routine of the school day and that I will then take on the anticipation for the coming school year and its challenges.
For new teachers, or those that just haven't found the comfort of the classroom yet, I wrote a book (A Lesson Plan for Teachers, New and Old) to help with the anxiety. It features chapters on many of the anxieties and problems faced by new or struggling teachers from working with parents and administrators to handling the paperwork required by the "job," including lesson planning, grading, and home reporting. Link to the publisher site to see a listing of chapters and to read a free sample of the text. With practical advice and real life stories, my book will help you find the happiness and joy you should have in this rewarding career.
The book is a quick and easy read; it is not an overwhelming catalogue of policies handed to you by most districts on these first days of school. In addition, it is very affordable for those on that first year teaching salary! It is available on Amazon or at the publisher's site, Lulu. At Lulu, it is also available in download format for a more economic option.
Good luck in this new school year, Michele A Lesson Plan for Teachers, New and Old: A Guide for Student Teachers, New Teachers, and the Experienced Ones!

The American Turkish Society's Education Program is pleased to announce the availability of Curriculum Development Grants for 2011.
The program, which was initiated by The Society in the spring of 2010, offers funds to elementary and secondary school teachers to develop innovative curricula, projects and other classroom activities about Turkey. The Society’s first Curriculum Development Grant was awarded to Harry A. Dawe, former Headmaster of Robert College in Istanbul and current history teacher and college counselor at the Fieldston Upper School in Bronx, New York. Mr. Dawe received support for History 181: East Meets West, for which he developed course material and two chapters of a history text book for use with eleventh and twelfth graders.
Grants vary between $250 and $2,500, and cover the costs of research, materials, speakers, and other expenses incurred by the school or the teacher. The amount of each grant is determined by the project’s scope, the availability of total funds, and the number of projects selected through a competitive process. The American Turkish Society encourages all applicants to identify additional sources of funding where possible. Once selected, grantees will be free to develop their proposed projects without editorial input from The Society. They will, however, participate in follow-up activities for evaluation purposes and will be asked to share any teaching plans, materials and activities with The American Turkish Society for future dissemination.
Application Process: Spring Semester, 2011
Application deadline: November 1 Notification: December 1
Please submit proposals including:
1. A 2-page summary of the proposed project detailing the tools, materials, and methods to be used; the objectives and anticipated impact; and the teacher's relevant qualifications; 2. A project budget, including a detailed breakdown of costs and the grant amount requested; 3. The teacher’s CV; and 4. A letter of support from the teacher’s school.
Interested parties should send proposals to The American Turkish Society at [email removed].
For questions and additional information, please email [email removed].

I am leading a Christmas card exchange with K-2 teachers from across our country (one from every state). I posted ads on ProTeacher.net and several teacher’s groups on yahoo. I am currently searching for teachers to fill the last openings. Your state is one of the states I am still searching for.
I am starting a Christmas card exchange. Fifty teachers (one from each state) will participate in this exchange. Teachers will be chosen simply by whoever responds first. I teach kindergarten, but I opening up the exchange to any classrooms in grades K-3.
Cards can be store bought or homemade. Inside your card please include a short letter about your school (name, grade level, school mascot, etc.) I am asking that all cards be mailed no later than Monday, December 6, 2010....that way all cards will arrive before the start date of most holiday breaks (ours is December 17th).
After I have a teacher for each state I will type the names/addresses for all fifty teachers onto a Microsoft Word label format so all you will have to do is print the labels and place them on your cards.
I was a participant on a Chicka Chicka letter exchange this fall and my students absolutely loved it. I would love to be able to complete a United States map with my students and surround it with cards.
Hoping this will be fun....
If you would like to do this.......
Please e-mail me with the following info: [email removed]
STATE where you teach (first please):
Teacher's name:
School name:
School mailing address
