I am in a constant search for new grant opportunities for my classroom and students. In my search for grants, I found an amazing site for teachers. Grantwranger is a website with grants organized by grade, subject area, or deadlines. The site has grants for beginning grant writers up to advance grant writers. I hope this helps more of my teaching buddies find grants for their classroom. Please share if you have any sites with grant opportunities for teachers.

I’ve been given this award by Patty Rutenbar over at Second in Line. Thank you so very much!
The rules say that I have to highlight five other new bloggers and pass this award on to them. I am a follower of so many blogs. I enjoy learning so much from so many different bloggers. The blogs that I have decided to highlight are:
I am sure all my teacher friends are rushing around trying to get their lovely babies ready for “The Test”. My students will be taking their last Discovery Education Assessment this coming Thursday. We are off on Monday and Tuesday, so that only leaves me one day to review before “The Test”. I have created a review Power Point that can be used to review for a reading skills test for 5th, 6th, or 7th grade. I plan to use it to hand out tokens exchange for the correct answer. At the end of the class, students with at least 15 tokens get a piece of broccoli (candy). The students really try and pay close attention when they know broccoli is up for graps. I hope this helps in your prep time for “The Test”
