News for May

Spring is all around! Our eyes love it, but our allergies hate it.

This past month, we finally got around to fixing up our blog. We hope to update it regularly with thoughts, personal stories, etc., in a way that educators may find useful.

The newest feature is the Calendar section. We created a new weekly planner for the 2009-2010 school year (it'll be here before you know it), dated monthly calendars through December, 2010, and a "What's so important about today?" feature. The "What's So Important " pages feature each month, at a glance, with recurring holidays and today-in-history anecdotes. The pages are not fully up yet, but we have created a lot of interesting, educational links for each posted event. For example, the anniversary of the Bataan Death March links to additional information on the tragedy.

Please keep emailing us with your requests and suggestions, as we take them very seriously. We will be very busy this summer uploading materials! Okay, so we'll spend some time relaxing around the pool. But on those rainy days, you can bet that we'll be at our computers.
