Whether you are athletic yourself, love to watch the players, or would rather cozy up with a good book, you have a chance to score big right here with more than $25,000 in prizes just for teachers!

My students would love the sports books and these would make a great addition to my collection.
I liked the Adventure to Fitness give away. There are a lot of good opportunities to win prizes for my classroom and students.
I like Lakeshore and Adventure to Fitness
My students would love the sports books. My collection is in need of this genre. I think the ?Adventure to Fitness sounds like a great program. Lakeshore has fantastic products that would enhance any classroom.
My kids are huge sports nuts. I would love to win the Adventure to Fitness giveaway!
My class loves to play soccer!
I absolutely love Lakeshore! I can always find new and creative materials to teach with here.
Love Lake Shore and Love the learning magazine contests
My class favors wrestling, basketball, and football!
Here in Buffalo, New York the students are Football fans in the fall with the Buffalo Bills and hockey fans in the winter with the Buffalo Sabers.
Adventure contest!! Would be amazing!!! Anything that is related to learning is an A+ in my book!!!
I don’t know much about sports except I play soccer barefoot. That said I played “baseball” with my two brothers- they either batted while I pitched or they pitched and fielded when I batted. They tried to explain football but I just fielded as they instructed. Lakeshore not only has teaching products, they have some nice free resources. I will be looking into the Adventure Rewards Contest 2015 and the Crayola site again.
Kids Athletes gets my vote. Fitness is very important to my class and me.
