This is a wonderful opportunity to win some great prizes...but I have found that the entry access is somewhat discriminatory. In order to create additional entries it is assumed that everyone is a member of Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter. Personally, I choose not to be a part of social networking sites, and it bothers me that I cannot enter additional times.

Laura Wieczorek said...

an Ipad would be so cool to help me with my dyslexia program.

Looking forward to another class with homeschool connections this year. (Love your science classes)
