My Accomplishment

I'm very excited to say that I recently found out that a teaching idea I submitted to The Mailbox Magazine will be published! This is my 2nd time to be published and you would've thought by my reaction that I won an Academy Award. I received a gift certificate and will be sent a copy of the book or magazine that my idea is featured in once it is printed.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

To my students.....Since the bad weather didn't let me say it this week, here's hoping all my students have a great Christmas, winter vacation, and happy new year!!! Remember, have your AR book read and Social Studies done when you get back in January and be studying those math facts! If you have any books at home that you'd like to read for AR, go to book finder and check to see that they are in your level first. If any of you would like to make blog postings during break, go right ahead! See you all in 2011! Love, Mrs. Knust :)
