This newsletter will go back to twice a week beginning September 1st. The membership is way down in the summer because most teachers do not have a summer email address. If there are topics you want resources for please send them to me now so I can start searching for resources and put them in the newsletter. Please send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This newsletter has not been sent out for several weeks. I have had a reoccuring knee infection and have not been able to write the newsletter. The newsletter with all sections will be sent out twice a week starting on Monday. I have several sections already done that members have requested. For lots and lots of great lesson plan ideas go to http://www.educationcu.com/infodesk/teacher_lesson_plans.html The lesson plans have been organized by subjects. ========================== Resources for Teachers on the Net The Ecookbook Library - Great for Teachers E Cookbook Library has over 60 cookbooks to download. It also has some other books like Harry Potter, Shakespeare, The cost of E Cookbooks is $14.97 for a lifetime membership. You can download one book or all 60+ books listed in the recipe section.

Pour into greased and floured 13 x 9 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Let cool. FROSTING: 1 (20 oz.) can crushed drained pineapple 1 (8 oz.) container Cool Whip 1 sm. pkg. vanilla instant pudding Beat all frosting ingredients with mixer well. Frost cooled cake. Refrigerate to keep. This is a cake that is even better several days after it is made, because it becomes more moist. ============================= Messages from Our Members Comment I need a resource where I can get free catalogs to use in my classroom. I want to use them for math and writing prompts. Can you help me? Sue Hundreds of Free Catalogs http://ads.websponsors.com/?u=1643&o=1341 I ordered some free catalogs from the link listed in the last newsletter. I plan to order some more later this week. Looking through catalogs is the favorite free activity in my classroom. (remember to take out the underwear pictures or you will hear a lot of giggles.)
