The Woodrow Wilson Teaching Fellowship

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Woodrow Wilson. All opinions are 100% mine.





Would you like to change the future for some school students in your lifetime? There is a big demand for qualified and experienced teachers all over the world. You could make a difference in a student's life by becoming a teacher for needy schools. The woodrow wilson teaching fellowship provides recent college graduates and career changers in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, or math) with a $30,000 stipend to complete an intensive master’s degree program at one of fourteen participating universities. With your knowledge, you could be the one person that can give a student the opportunity of a lifetime. With education budgets being slashed by big governments, there is a critical shortage of trained teachers. What are the benefits and rewards of being a trained teacher you ask? One of the most important benefits of becoming a teacher is that teachers contribute to the shaping of future generations. They make a big difference to society by playing a vital role in nurturing young minds. Another benefit is that teaching helps you develop interpersonal and social skills. You get the personal satisfaction of saying you taught a person things he/she didn't know before. The purpose of the program is to educate and prepare America for the 21st century since there will be a need for 280,000 new math and science teachers by the year 2015. Visit www.wwteachingfellowship.org for further information on the program.

Competitive candidates will:

- Have completed an undergraduate degree in a STEM field by June 2011.
- Have graduated with a 3.0 GPA or higher.
- Demonstrate a commitment to the program and its goals.

Fellows will:
- Complete a field-based master’s degree in teacher education.
- Commit to teach for at least three years in a high-need school.
- Receive intensive support and mentoring in the classroom.

School starts soon

School has almost begun for many kids and I'm sure many parents are stocking up on school supplies for their children. This year we enrolled our son into preschool and joined the many parents out shopping for school supplies for their children. My son Ethan can't wait to start school. We bought him a back pack because he kept bothering us about wanting a back pack. We bought all kinds of supplies for his back pack. Now its just a waiting game until the big day which will be next Tuesday. I'm sure my son won't want to come home because he will be having too much fun. Well, he will learn soon enough that's it's not all fun and games. My wife and I can't believe our little boy is growing up and we will miss not seeing him in the morning.

Field trips for all

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Lunchables. All opinions are 100% mine.



It’s been a long long time that I haven’t had experience to join a field trip. I think the last time I joined a field trip was 40 years ago. I can’t wait for my son to go to school because I’m sure I will be able to experience that again. When we went to Balboa Park a few months ago we saw a lot of kids wandering around with their teachers. They went to science museum and explored the science field. Some went to natural history museum. Looking at those children’s face's, I can tell how curious they were to know everything. Their eyes were glued looking into the things that the museum have. While I was browsing youtube to find something interesting, I stumble across this video clip entitled “Alien Field Trip” made by Lunchables Lunch. It was so cool that those kids thought that there were really true aliens on our planet and that they were talking to them for real. The people behind the alien’s costume finally revealed themselves to the kids and told them that it was them who pretended to be aliens, kids were laughing out loud.

As far as Lunchables Lunch is concerned, they are having contests right now. They want you to nominate a deserving student in your classroom and who ever is chosen will be one of the 50 students from different classrooms to join the Field Trips For All. You have to let them know who you nominated and why? They would love to know who you think this prize should go to! So what are you waiting for? Join now and for further details visit their website today.

Getting my son ready for campus life

This post was sponsored by Sears. All the opinions are mine. If I'm going to send my son to college i would want my son to feel as close to home as possible. I want to make sure my son has the best and is CampusReady so i chose to shop the gamers play ground dorm room because i know my son loves computers, music and technology. He can use the laptop to communicate with his parents and when he's not studying he can play with this cool blue Nintendo DS lite or watch a movie on the 32 inch HDTV with surround sound stereo. I like the black plaid comforter set with the black accent pillows. If money was no object i would purchase the Nintendo Wii system, the compact refrigerator to keep his food fresh, aspire notebook computer. Since my wife does the budgeting for our family i would have her create a budget and allowance system so that our son could always have money when he needs it. I think it would be a great idea for him to have a bicycle so that he can save money and not have to use money for public transportation and besides, its a great way to get cardio exercise. Since he doesn't have a cell phone i think it would be wise to save money by purchasing phone cards so when he calls us long distance it wont cost him a fortune. He really wants us to buy him some new jeans and t-shirts for his new college life away from home since he wore out all his other jeans and clean underwear is always a "must have" in our house. My son and i both have facebook accounts but now that sears has created CampusReady on Facebook it will make the transition to college life that much easier for my son. College life is not easy but with some careful planning we're hoping we can make our son's life away from home as pleasant as possible.

Great education site for teens

Have any of you heard about Brightstorm? If not, I’ll be more than happy to inform everyone that Brightstorm offers a quality education and teachers for high schoolers. I remember those days when I was still high school; I felt it was the boring years of my life. The teachers I had back then were so boring; they don’t have any teaching techniques that will make their students alive during the class. That’s why most of my classmates at that time were not paying attention towards our professors. I think if I knew about Brightstorm during those days I would surely become more active in my class and excel my grades. I just Sign up for a free brightstorm acocunt a while ago because I want to keep this website for future use. I have a son who will soon be benefited from this program.

I found a Custom Writing Services

I remember when my wife was telling me about their English Professor letting them do some Custom Essay writing. She was so worried because the deadline is getting closer and she wasn't done with it yet. I was trying to help her at that time. I researched about custom writing services that would help her do everything related to her project. I remember i told her that the services i found provides Essay Editing, that way she will be sure that her work is perfect because i want her to obtain the highest grade possible and to achieve better grammar speaking and writing.
