Rayovac Teachers Bring Science to Life Contest

"Ms. Mommy is the best teacher on the planet because she helps me all the time."

Gulp.  That's one of the comments I got from one of our Tigers the first year we started homeschooling.  And talk about a mix of emotions, this made me smile, cry, love, and tremble at the responsibility!  Yet, I know how important a teacher can be to a child.

The years our children were in traditional school (both private and public - yes, we've done it all! :) We were fortunate enough to have awesome teachers for each child each year.

So I have big shoes to fill! :)



What's your teacher story?  Does your child have an extraordinary teacher?  Now, you can do something for that teacher to give back!

Rayovac has partnered with Steve Spangler Science for the Teachers Bring Science to Life Contest!  You can nominate your favorite teacher!

Now for Steve Spangler Science himself -

This is a wonderful thing to do for teachers. We need not take them for granted for sure.
