Thank you for the heads up on the Playmobil drawing.
I entered the Watermelon contest and also the Georgia Pacific! Super cute video on penguins on the GP site!
Thanks for all the great information. I entered all the contests.
I entered the Playmobil hopefully I will be one of Lucky 1,000 teacher and win a set for my Preschool Class.
I have some boys who love Legos.
I love the Georgia-Pacific Sweepstakes. I would like to win some ipad minis for my classroom! My classroom is very short on technology. Kindergarten comes in last at my school. Hopefully one that will change!
I am a determined penguin for Georgia Pacific. That would make my students chicks and my class a rookery. Go Georgia Pacific. DK is always a hit with nonfiction, now to partner with Lego, this is a great combination. Finally, Purell
is used in my classroom everyday all day. It is great for perfect attendance awards.
Wow, I could use all of them.
I work with 18 different classrooms that serve low income children/families. It would be splendid to win some of these wonderful items so the teachers could enrich their classrooms.
I am hoping for the playmobil toy. I love their toys and have such fond memories of my own children playing with them. So want them for my classroom.
And the lego books. Oh Wow.
Would love the book its just in time for fall.
This is a great resource for teachers! I would feel lucky to win any of the prizes. The story, Pick a Circle, Gather Squares, would be a perfect edition to my fall library!
These are all awesome prizes! I could really use the iPad. The book look like a great library addition, too!
All of these opportunities are wonderful and most definitely will enrich whomever’s classroom that wins. I have never won any type of contest and hopefully I will someday soon. I run my schools visual arts program and any support or added supplies to help with my lesson planning or supplies would absolutely be wonderful in teaching my classes from 1st through 6th grade about art and art history development.
Congratulations to the winners of these giveaway contest! Your are all awesome teachers!
These are some wonderful prizes that would be an awesome addition to any classroom!
All of the sweepstakes are great!! If I win anything, I will be grateful..
I am most excited by the Playmobil giveaway. Is there such a thing as too many manipulatives?
I love the book and the Legos however, I would appreciate and be thankful for any of the give-a-ways. I’m a special needs preschool teacher so the Legos and iPad would fit beautifully in my curriculum.
I’d love to get any of the prizes, but the technology ones would be fantastic so I had another fun alternative for a center activity! Fingers & toes crossed!
I am excited about the book, “Pick a Circle, Gather Squares”. As a Kindergarten teacher, we love to incorporate literature with our math lessons.
I love all of the contests. I was mostly interested in the ipad giveaway and the watermelon quiz/contest. I am a 3rd grade science & social studies teacher and love, love, love hands on and innovative ways to teach these subjects to our majority bilingual population that is also comprised of special needs children reading at a kinder level!
I’m keeping my lucky fingers crossed for the “Pick a Circle…” Book!
Thank you!!!
I think Elmers always has the best contests!
