Blame it on spring, but for some reason the word that has been buzzing around in my head today is, well, buzz—buzzwords, creating buzz, all abuzz. So with that in mind, here’s a quick list of some of the fun freebies we’re buzzing about here at Learning magazine this week.

What are you buzzing about? Submit a comment to our blog by midnight on Monday, May 17, 2010. One lucky reader will win a copy of the new book Outdoor Science: A Practical Guide from the NSTA Press. And if your post includes the word “buzz” or “bee,” I’ll throw in the new children’s book The Buzz on Bees: Why Are They Disappearing? from Holiday House. Post your comment today! |  |

I love all the Mailbox books. I am still waiting for my scissors. I teach VPK and am always looking for new ideas on anything.
I got my free westcox scissors and my students love the cushioned handles. I like them because there is less chance of spreding germs while using them!!
Thanks!!
I love Mailbox.. I want to win!!!
