“Giftedness is not what you do or how hard you work. It is who you are. You think differently. You experience life intensely. You care about injustice. You seek meaning. You appreciate and strive for the exquisite. You are painfully sensitive. You are extremely complex. You cherish integrity. Your truth-telling has gotten you in trouble. Should 98% of the population find you odd, seek the company of those who love you just the way you are. You are not broken. You do not need to be fixed. You are utterly fascinating. Trust yourself!”

Linda Silverman~Gifted Development Center Denver

It's Here! The secret is out!

Pssssst!  Yes, you!  Guess what?


It is that time of year again...NO not summer vacation (not yet!)  It's time to write REPORT CARDS...or at least it is in Ontario.  I see some of my American blogger buddies are almost done their year!  Their reports are probably signed, sealed and delivered!  Not so for us Canadians, we hearty folks have to soldier on for another 48 days! (but who's counting?)



To help beat the report card blues, I am hosting the FIRST EVER 31Gifts Blog Party!  Yeah!  If you are Canadian you can finally order these awesome bags and have them shipped to you from my new teacher buddy Jen.   

Personally I want this one!  Can't you picture it personalized with HOT PINK stitching?  I might even get one with my blog name on it!  This tote is an steal at only $36!  Think of all the use you will get out of it.  If you buy this, you can get the matching thermal tote for only $11!  Think of the last time you were able to buy such cute items for such a great price?
I also really like this one...

Who doesn't need a nice lanyard for hanging classroom keys and ID Cards?  This super cute one comes in a variety of designs and and a charm with an inspirational word.  Only $6!  


There are LOTS of other great designs and colours...I just happen to be IN LOVE with this one!  To view more great products click HERE.

Love personalized products?  I DO!  Look at this cute tote!  Make sure you check out the embroidery guide while you are shopping!



Not convinced yet?  Check out all the cute styles and designs!

Ready for the giveaway?  
Who wouldn't want to win this awesome tote full of supplies to help with marking and report card writing?


Please read the terms and conditions of the GIVEAWAY.  
THE GIVEAWAY CAN BE SHIPPED IN CANADA OR THE US ONLY.


Do any of you struggle with personalizing the comments?  I find that I have the expectations (standards) and I can write a great standard comment, but it needs to be tweaked to fit different students.  Very much like a rubric!  I have created a list (it's by no means exhaustive) of qualifiers that might help you make your comments a little more specific.  
Click on the image above to download this FREEBIE.  I hope it helps with report card writing!
