Peabody Energy Leader in Education Award

I was recently surprised by a school convocation in which I was presented the Peabody Energy Leader in Education Award!  I received a gift basket with a flip cam and other goodies and a check for $1,000.  I was excited and honored to say the least.  I will be eligible for the $5,000 Educator of the Year Award which will be presented in August.  I believe the winner will be chosen by facebook votes.  I love teaching and feel so lucky to be able to go to work excited about what I'm going to do each day.

Blog Looks Great

I just want to say how awesome it is that your class has a blog and everyone gets to contribute.  Mrs. Knust has been talking with me about the problems the class has been having with posting your posts and we are working on it. 

Has your class had a chance to try some of the books at www.biguniverse.com ?  I would love to hear comments from you with your thoughts on the program.  Your teacher can send me an email with all of your comments, each of you can email me, or I can set up an online survey.  Just have your teacher let me know what she would like to have your class do.

Keep working hard in your class and listening to your teacher.  She does a great job and will have each of you ready for third grade next year.  Good luck!
