Fourth Grade is great fun and the kids are eager learners.
This year I created a Moodle Class, on-line class, through our local ESU that focuses on reading and writing skills using Habits of Mind Thinking Strategies Content and Iditarod. Last year I was a finalist for Iditarod's Trail Committee's Teacher on the Trail. I partcipated in the 2008 Iditarod and love sharing that exciting race with the students.

Take care.
