Her body was dumped and not found for a week. Today we talked about how that horrible event brought us together as a faculty and how we more deeply appreciate and validate each child every day, even when it's not always easy.Tracey Welchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10132773.post-23422900265972567682009-10-27T16:04:32.681-07:002009-10-27T16:04:32.681-07:00Hi Mr. McNamar,
Sorry to be messaging you in the ...Hi Mr. McNamar,<br /><br />Sorry to be messaging you in the comments. I could not find an email...<br /><br />I help run a website called <a href="http://Brainyflix.com" rel="nofollow">Brainyflix</a>. We host Vocab Contests sponsored by MIT & Salesforce as a public service project to build a free & fun resource to help teens prep for the SAT & ACT. I am trying to get the word out any way I can and am hoping this is something your Daily Grind readers would be interested in.<br /><br />We are currently running our Brainypics flashcard contest, in which students create interesting sentences and pair them up with memorable pictures as a visual cue. Between now and Dec. 7, we'll be selecting 5 Brainypics each week which will qualify for our Grand Prize of $200. We are also giving out iTunes songs for every 5 Brainypics created and gift cards to the runner ups of the finale. Full details here: <a href="http://brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules" rel="nofollow">http://brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules</a>.<br /><br />I can send you something pre-written if you would like. Please let me know either way at jack [at] brainyflix [dot] com.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />JackJackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543748918762257887noreply@blogger.com
