Jack's Comments

I love the SAT Vocab Minute you all do, I will have to see if my students are up to it. Have to give it some thought. Thanks for getting in touch. Are you just needing them to do videos on some piece of SAT vocab?

Jack: This looks promising. I want to give it serious consideration, and I'll recommend it as well to my colleagues here in Alaska. Is there an approved "SAT" vocabulary list we're supposed to create the commercials/infomercials for? Art

Hi Jack,
I have to say no. We have such rigid telecommunications in Baltimore County that it's hard to do much of anything with the kids online. No videos/still or online pics/email......etc. Parent permission is hard to get because the new forms for permission are too involved/difficult for most to understand! It has taken months for us to b able to get most permission to access the Internet and we still have some who aren't able to because parents won't allow access or they don't understand what they are being asked to sign. I will pass on the idea to friends in other counties though. Thanks for the invitation.

Hello Jack,
Send me some more information and I will share it with my colleagues when I return to work on Jan 5, 2009.

Hello Jack -
Love what your doing! I'll pass this on to people I know in the middle school.

Hi Jack,

I will forward your message to the English Dept. Thanks for the info.

Jack, as others have commented I would like to know more about your project. I am a Special Education teacher at the High School level and I have a variety of classes/responsibilities. If I am unable -- there are several others at my school who may be interested and able to participate. Please tell me more so I can see what I can do. : )

Absolutely! Let me know what we can do to get involved!

Yes Jack, I am interested. I teach SAT prep at the HS level and would love to get my 3rd quarter students involved. Is everything I need to know on the website?

I would love to hear more about this opportunity. I have 10 schools (6 elem, 2 middle, 2 high) that I provide technology training to. I also work with teachers and students on technology projects and intitiatives.

Sure, Jack,
As the other insructors said, tell me more. I teach a video class (second year at a two-year college) during Winter Quarter, if that fits in with your program. We'd love to participate in some way.
All my best,
Bill

Jack, please send me more info on this activity. If it doesn't fit our curriculum standards then i can at least pass it on to a grade level where it might be more appropriate.

Hi Jack,
I teach 4th grade. Are you looking for videos from teachers of upper grade students? Let me know. Thanks.

Jack, please give me more info concerning this activity. If my students are not suitable for this perhaps I can give the info to another teacher in my system. Thanks!

Hi Jack,

Thanks for the invite, I'll see what we can do.

Hi Jack, It sounds interesting! Can you give me more informaton about this? My students are special needs teens from 14-18 but we do have vocabulary words. Let me know. Thanks for contacting me. Cindy

Jack,
I will def. check in with the English department. Our kids are very competitive, and would probably love it. I'll get back to you after break.

That's much better for advertising the contest. Thx : )
