Kudos:
Anndrea Harrold, Kathy Green, Jeremy Thompson, and Irma Bauer for helping me to organize and deliver the Enrichment materials. I didn't ask, you all just stepped in and did it! I'm in awe of your generosity. XOXO
Ms. Evelyn, I'm sure that poor kid at HEB is still wondering what we did with all the flour and salt! Now at least everyone here knows. I appreciate all your help.
Heather Davis, Gus Oseguera, Jennifer Bloch, Marc Schwarz, Irma Bauer, Jayson Sherman, Jennifer Squires, Lisa M, Sofie Vastano, Virginia Cole, Ashley Brunette. and anyone else that I may have accidentally left off (charge it to my head, not my heart) for loaning cookie cutters or bringing in toilet paper/paper towel rolls. You saved my bacon! :D
Pamela Anderson (the talented one) and Kim Fulton of our wonderful PTA for all the donations and help. I am really grateful to you especially because you didn't ask any questions, you just made it happen! See you Monday :D
Ms. Sandra, Ms. Maribel, Ms. Castillo and Ms. Eloisa for allowing me to use their aides. I really appreciate your willingness to lend their hands. ;)
Jay Ferguson for thinking of those things that I forgot! I appreciate you taking the time to look over my thoughts.
Casey Shuck for listening to my ramblings as I was brain-storming the wackiness. I appreciate your perspective!
Wendy Tucker and Cherri Urban for encouraging me to come in to get good books, use your sink and/or chat about most anything. You ladies are a great team and I appreciate what you do!
Every Platoon Leader for your patience with the materials delivery and flexibility in trying the lessons. You guys are really a-mazing and keep students in the forefront of what you do!
- Elaine Fowler
Again, I'd love to say thanks to the World Cultures and Texas History folks for keeping me in the loop and sharing their valuable resources. I love teaching World Cultures and I have to say that the subject of Texas History is growing on me! Thanks again for all your collaboration and assistance!
