Did you know that the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) annual conference will be Nov. 2010 in Orlando? If you would like to submit a session -- sharing your experiences and perspectives -- the deadline is Jan. 12. Go to their website to see the categories etc.: www.ncte.org.

Our Brainyflix video contest just ended, and I wanted to thank you for helping us get the word out. We got 800 submissions from across the country!

That said, MIT was really happy with the results and will let us run another contest, so we're going for it! But this time, we're gonna have kids create Brainypics flashcards - which are images and sentences paired up with a one of our SAT/ACT words. The contest ends May 22nd, and there'll be iTunes and a cash prize like last time. To boot, we'll double the payout if the kids can hit a certain goal. More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules.

Do you mind passing my message along to your HS colleagues again?

Thanks,
Jack

Hope you're enjoying the winter break. I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get Florida students involved.

You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!
