January's Teacher's Giveaway

This month’s topic is: “A Success Story.” As you may know, the time I am spending now on a sabbatical is well earned. My twelve years in education has shown me that it pays to work towards improving the relationships with students, enriching the curriculum by providing meaningful activities, engaging them with the heart all while trying to manage a classroom and a life beyond it. While happily resting, I’m thinking how you are engaging your students in different and creative ways and hopefully, each of you will have something to share resulting from your hard work.

For this giveaway, I’ll be giving an excellent Barnes and Nobles planner, which has saved me for spilling my brains all throughout my teaching career. It’s a god send – the brain child of a teacher and the reviews prove it. Some parts of it could be used in real life too. I would really like to see this gift in someone’s hand – especially one who needs a bit of New Year's reminder.

Please find a post or write about those little successes, so that we can all be recharged for the New Year as we think of additional teacher resolutions. Email your posts no later than January 28th. I reserve the right to screen for objectionable content. This giveaway is open to all teachers with a US and overseas addresses.Hopefully, I'll be busy reading your entries and announce a winner by the end of January.

Good luck and I look forward to reading your entries.
