Last May, I was very lucky to be named one of the
five grand prize winners in the
Got 2B Safe Contest, sponsored by
Honeywell and the
National Center For Missing & Exploited Children. The contest requires teachers to write a unit of lesson plans regarding Cyber Safety for students in grades K-5. My unit consisted of students creating videos using one of my favorite online tools,
YouTube, to produce annotated "choose your own adventure" style movies about the
Got 2B Safe Rules of Safety.

John and Reve Walsh - What An Honor! |
The grand prize consists of a trip to Washington DC where I was honored along with the other four grand prize winners at the
Hope Awards, which was hosted by
John Walsh, plus tours of Washington DC,
Honeywell, the NCMEC and attendance at a Congressional Breakfast.
The best part of the prize - my classroom is receiving a $10,000 classroom makeover which will be officially "revealed" next Wednesday at 9:30am. You are welcome to join us in the classroom for this exciting event. There will be representatives from Honeywell, Scottsdale's
Mayor Lane and some local media.
