This month’s ticket game saw 28 participants earn a total of 320 tickets.  One Discovery Educator had three tickets while another had 60 tickets.  Scott Kinney, Discovery Educator Network East Coast Director, pulled this month’s winning ticket and it had Linda Cober’s (West Shore School District) name on it.  Congratulations, Linda! 

For those of you who did not win, please feel free to send Scott a virtual lump of coal. 

I am putting together an article for an upcoming edition of the Discovery Education Resource Guide, and I need your help.  The article is about effective and creative ways to use unitedstreaming as a tool for supporting instruction in Language Arts.  I am basically looking at two questions:

1) How do you use unitedstreaming in your Language Arts classroom?

2) How do you use unitedstreaming to help prepare your students for high-stakes tests in Reading and English?

If you would like to share your ideas, please let me know.  I want to make the article a collaborative of PA DEN members rather than a rant from me

Send me an email.  Post a comment here.  Give me a call.  Whatever works for you.  I really want to hear your ideas.  Thanks in advance.

Here is our most recent registration list for the very special Discovery Educator Network pre-conference session.  If you are not on the list, please let me know asap.

Since we already have the training promotion where you can win shirts, computer bags, gift cards, and wireless presentation devices, we will only have one prize for this month’s ticket game.  So why not make it a good one?  One lucky winner will receive an InFocus LCD projector.

From now until December 22, 2005, you can earn tickets for the following:

- Conduct a unitedstreaming training session/event/luncheon/pow wow/etc. (5 tickets)

- Earn one ticket for every two of your students who submit a poster design to the DEN National Poster Contest

The winner will be announced on December 23, 2005 via the blog.
