WFTOTT Jane arrived on Wednesday evening. By the way, she has already started to put messages on the WFTOTT section of the website. Check out www.iditarod.com and Click Teacher Resouces. Then click Teacher on the Trail. Jane has two sections to her part of the website, the lessons and the messages.

We spent most of yesterday at Iditarod Headquarters where teachers from the Anchorage and Wasilla area joined us for a curricululm writing class. The class continues today. The class is a great opportunity for educators to collaborate about using the race
in the classroom.

As I type this, I know that several of you are busy with last minute preparations. Take my cell number with so should you need anything, I can assist.

Have a great day!.
