Liz Blek always has the
most useful information in the National Kindergarten Alliance Newsletter. If you’re not a member, you really need
to check it out because they work tirelessly (and freely) advocating best
practices for young children. Go
to nkateach.org for more information and to view past newsletters.
The foundations below were
listed in the recent NKA Newsletter.
I know you don’t have time today, but save this information for when you
get bored over your winter break.
Think of some place you’d like to visit this summer (like Charleston,
SC) and then check out one of these opportunities. Somebody’s going to get the money, so it might as well be
you!

Early Childhood Summit theme this year is “Common Core and MORE!” It will be held June 19 & 20, 2014. I wish I had a magic wand so I could
wave it and you could all visit my beautiful city. Sometimes wishes come true, so I’ll hope one of the
foundations above will grant my wish for you! Here’s our website so you can learn more about this year’s
conference:
