Amanda's Back to School Sale- Updated Aug. 12, 2011
Yes, it's that time of the year. The back to school sales are beginning. Sometimes I think, could it be? We only just ended a few weeks ago? But secretly as a teacher I get excited about "Back to School" sales. I love buying a new box of markers for $1.00 or crayons for 25 cents. It gets me excited about heading back to school as a teacher. This year the sales are helping me get excited about going to teach in Hungary. I'm having to refrain from buying so much of what I normally do as I won't have space for it.
So, I thought I should throw my own "Back to School" sale. It's a different type of sale. The sale is to help me get to Hungary to be able to teach the 2nd graders there. (I can't wait to meet them!) It's only 14 days until I plan to leave!
The "items" for sale below are estimates of my costs as I go to Hungary. If you would like to purchase one please fill out a pledge form, write a check to TeachBeyond and mail it in. I would also love to know if you are purchasing an item I'll cross it off my list. If you need a pledge form or more information please contact me at aferris(@)teachbeyond(.) org.
