What do cereal, St. Patty's Day, Google Earth, and NASCAR have in common?


Sponsored by TechnospudProjects.com - PreSchool through Third Grade Students all over the world are welcome to join in the fun as we use the contents of a "General Mills Lucky Charms" 14 oz size box of cereal! Registration is now OPEN!! There will lots of great activities, as well as St. Patrick Ideas, which will help to make the week of March 12th through 16th, a fun filled -- EDUCATIONAL -- week!!

St. Patrick's Day -- Online Project 2007


If you happen to be in school next week (and you teach PK through 3rd), you might take a look at what Jennifer Wagner, fellow educator and NASCAR fan has working over at Technospud. It is a world-wide collaborative event that has over 600 educators and 12,000 students in it right now. Jennifer has everything laid out for you already from national standards to worksheets. You just need some kids and some Lucky Charms and get registered by Friday, March 9th (Awesome math and technology tie-in here!). So go on over there and register and join in the international fun. It is gauranteed to be magically delicious (lame slogan theft, I know).


Oh, the NASCAR fan part really has nothing to do with the project. I am just glad to find a female educator that enjoys watching cars go around in circles and run into each other as much as I do (or even at all).

    Grins -- Go Gilliland!!! #38 Woo Hoo!!

    Thanks so much for the link to my project. We are at 694 registrants right now (with 3 more days to register) and though I know about 25% will end up not posting results -- I do think we are going to hit some high numbers this year. Plus the addition of Google Earth has made this just PURE fun.

    Thanks again for the mention.
    Jennifer

    Any time, Jennifer. You have some great ideas flowing over there. Keep it up!

    Go (insert name of any guy who never wins here)! Two weeks to Bristol!
