| I cannot thank you enough. This year you have been my best friend, mentor, and only teacher that I am collaborating with--and you probably did not have a clue...

IF
YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE RECEIVING AN EMAIL DELIVERY FROM ME, IT MAY BE
CAUSED BY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING. PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU HAVEN'T
RECEIVED A SHIPMENT AS I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF YOU'VE RECEIVED YOUR
ORDER! Or try one of the fixes
listed below. I ALWAYS email download links and passwords within 24 hours so if you haven't received delivery after that, please email me immediately! (1) The new Explorer Internet Browser has VERY STRONG filters now which makes it impossible to download my Packets. The Best Solution: Download the Safari Browser and use that to open your email and download the product. This has worked successfully lately on several occasions. (2) School District Email Systems have unusually aggressive spam filters and usually won't allow either the delivery of an email from me or using your school computer to download my Packets. The Best Solution: Use a home email addy such as yahoo or hotmail or gmail and download from home! Then save to a flash drive and take to school. (3) If you don't get a response of any kind from me, I will, in fact, have emailed you several times! You just are not receiving them! This has happened several times lately because of aggressive email filters of grade school, high school and college emails. The Best Solution: Please call me on the phone if this happens! Open the Pdf of my Purchase Order above to find my phone number. |

I have it all assembled in my 3" binder and am very excited to start implementing these ideas into my curriculum next week when we begin Minerals. You have some very clever and creative ideas. Thanks so much and you will probably be hearing from me again as I plan to order some of your other kits. | |||||
| From a Teacher who'd just purchased the Minerals Packet: WOW! I have printed out everything. This is unbelievable! I can't wait to dig into it all. I am really hoping that I am teaching science next year just so I can have fun with this stuff. Thanks again! --May 2010 | |||||

| I have my third student teacher and I make sure they see and use the materials I purchased from you a few years ago - they in turn go back to their professors and show the product.... In the summers, I teach a 6 week Earth Science course for the students who failed the year, or failed the state exam, and I use your work exclusively prior to the intensive review. It is just the right level for them, and I have kept the 80% passing rate on the state exam over and over! | |||||

| I just discovered and love your website. I’ve been doing something like the “Weathering Walk” for years but it just hasn’t been as productive as I would like and this sounds like a much better way. I’m looking forward to trying it out this week. | |||||

"Just wanted to drop another THANK YOU, Aunt Marcia. I have most enjoyed the Power Points. I made minor adjustments to the PPT so that students get a chance to guess what's coming next. [Great Idea!] They are such a big help! I'm not sure how else to get the kids into some of these ideas without these wonderful visual examples. The cutting and pasting is going well also. At first a couple kids would mumble, "Not cutting again!" But now I limit the time they have to use their scissors (5 min) and then I take the scissors back and launch into the lesson. [Another great idea!] Your observation about the cut and paste worksheets being so much better than their own notes is 150% correct! Now when I get to review and additional sheets I just tell them to find the worksheet and away they go (at least, the ones who haven't lost it). Anyway, we're hopefully going on the weathering walk tomorrow (weather permitting)." | ||||

| Marcia - I'm on day 6 of teaching Weather. It's been such a fun ride. I'm a 22-year teaching veteran… Using your unit has added new dimension to my lessons and I'm packing in tons of activity and content into each 45-minute lesson. I'm so excited to teach these lessons each day as they bring fun and freshness to my day... Thanks...for helping this "old dog" learn a few new tricks! --Email from a GA teacher, March 2011 | |||||
