Love to Joplin

I LOVE being part of a blogging community where we can embrace each other in the best and worst of times, where we come together for those who need us.  Below is a copy of an email from a Joplin teacher and at this writing over 90 teachers have already jumped on board to help! I encourage you to help too!! J See below for more information
Joplin Tornado Damage

Deedee from Mrs. Wills Kindergarten received a very touching email from a teacher in Joplin. Here is her email:


I teach in Joplin, which made worldwide news last May when our town was cut in half by an F5 tornado. Many of our elementary schools were destroyed or damaged, and as teachers, we have had a roller coaster year. I came from a meeting yesterday where many are struggling with the weight of all we are dealing with. My request is this: would you be willing to donate a created pack of your choosing to give away at a drawing at our upcoming district Kindergarten grade level meeting? The meeting is Monday and I am sorry for the short notice but I did not realize until the meeting how down everyone is feeling.

Here's how you can help:

1. Send your TpT product or Teacher's Notebook to Erica

edoennig@joplin.k12.mo.us


2. Then link up on Deedee's blog


3. Purchase a tpt or teacher's notebook gift certificate


Wouldn't it be awesome if we filled her email with signs of love?




Let's continue to pray for these teachers, the families they serve and their communities as they rebuild.
