Postcard exchange 2011 update

For those of you who are participating in the current postcard exchange, let me share a few updates that I have received by email and on facebook.

Going to the mailbox!

There are many of you who are really moving along and sending out your postcards! I am so excited about your participation and have enjoyed the feedback and photos sent to me.

The photos shared here today are from Tuggy Tots!

I have recieved a few emails from you all with some words you have asked me to share…

  • Don’t forget that postcards going overseas will cost a little bit more in postage.
  • If you haven’t sent out any postcards yet – be sure to do so as everyone is anxiously waiting and many classes have big plans for integrating the postcards into their studies.
  • If you can possibly send postcards that have a picture of your state or city – it would be wonderful.
  • If you have decided not to participate for any reason, please email me so I can remove your school from the list but I sure hope everyone stays on board!

I really appreciate everyone for participating in the exchange and want to encourage you to do the best you can to get those postcards out. I know that some of you will be out of school for a week due to Spring Break – during this time, if you can still send out the postcards, this will keep the postcards flowing through the mail but I certainly understand if this is not possible for you.

Be sure to check the postcard exchange website (at the address and with the password you received in your email mail) for updates on addresses as just a few have changed.

Thank you so much to Tuggy Tots for sharing the darling photos of her students mailing the postcards and to all of you for your participation!

For those of you who were not able to participate in the exchange this go around – please note that sign-ups are closed at this time… Sorry about that 🙂

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'

Ready for Kindergarten offers simple to follow guidance and tips for where to focus your energy, how to support the learning that naturally takes place, and how to make the most of your child’s pre-kindergarten year.
