First let me start by wishing everyone who view are blog a very blessed Thanksgiving.
I hope each enjoy their time with family and friends..
Now the other reason I am posting is I found a great website (my kids did) while researching the Iditarod for a class project. It is http://www.ultimateiditarod.com/ . There are all kinds of things on this website that can be helpful to those of us who are beginning to introduce the Iditarod in our classes. So having completed task 2 I am again wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving from Tennessee.
The information on this site serves as information about the 2007 Summer Conference for Educators, held in Alaska June 24 - 30. Read the segments in the menu from MAY AND JUNE to learn about the conference. Read the additional blog postings and comments to learn about the the experiences that have led each participant to ways of enriching their curriculum by using Iditarod as a theme in classroom instruction.

Tee,
Greeting from Nebraska, where we play volleyball much better than we play football!!!
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving as well.
I really like ultimateiditarod.com because the reading level is kid friendly and they do have great information. Last year I sent Jim Gallea, one of the webmasters, an email and asked him a question. He wrote back a very detailed letter. So, if your students have a question or two, he will probably write them back.
I hope all is well in the Volunteer state!
