Any contest with a cash prize..keeping my fingers crossed!
I like the Studies Weekly and Animal Ambassadors sweepstakes.
I love books on any subject or grade level. There is always a child that wants to own a book and I loving providing it.
I love the attention given to teaching young people about animals and our environment. The future rest with them.
I love the Animal Ambassadors. I also love any cash prize that could help fund my classroom wish list!
Oh wow what a great group of contests
The book giveaways are so great! I would love to win any of them! WOW
I entered all the contests! My favorite is the Studies Weekly Bright Ideas in History Sweepstakes.
I think fairies are fun, so The Bernadette Watts Stories and Fairy Tales Collection would be appropriate.
You always have such great resources of contests that it makes it hard for me to choose just one. However most times some of the contest rewards are above my preschool level area so I don’t enter those contests. We need more areas for our early childhood teachers. Thanks, yours in education, Susan
I appreciate all the opportunities you give me to win items for the classroom.
You always have such great book reviews. It makes me wish I could afford to buy every book.
I really liked your Social Studies weekly contest. At my school we have a really outdated social studies book and getting the chance to win a more current way to teach my students material that they need to know is great.
I liked the Bright Ideas in history sweepstake information
I like the Animal Ambassadors program
I would choose the summer reading at the local library.
