Hi, Temeka!
ReplyDeleteI like the website from child care resources inc. The link above took me to a webpage full of other valuable sites and I really liked that they had them split into Local, State, Regional, and National links. That seems to work out nicely if you were looking for something specific to your home area or state. What a nice feature! I did take a few minutes to surf around the website also and it looks like there are a LOT of good things on it that could be valuable to me as a teacher and as a parent! Thanks for the link!
I found http://www.rfeonline.com/ very useful.
ReplyDeleteI really like to have access to this because it has great ideas and samples for parent-newsletters. Thank you very much for sharing!

I really liked the http://www.rfeonline.com/ website. I receive this newsletter from my own children's high school. I hadn't thought to look it up online. The other sites were nice too. Thanks for sharing! I will add these to my favorites as well!!
