Host Blog: Parent Bloggers Network
Post Date: October 12, 2007
Prize: $100 to Scholastic.com

The Parent Bloggers Network is holding a blog blast this Friday and you're all invited. The theme is "What are your kids learning in school?" What academic knowledge has surprised you? What do you think they should be learning but aren't yet? Tell us about teachers' approaches that you especially like or don't like. Do they have homework yet? Are they getting too much or too little, and do you see it a learning tool or mere busywork?

1. Send them the link to your post by Midnight PST on Friday. They'll be listing the posts by title on their blog, so be creative!
2. Make sure you link the Scholastic.com Parents site as well as Parent Bloggers Network. *They suggest hotlinking the question "What are your kids learning in school?" to the Scholastic.com Parents site somewhere in your post.*
3. They'll round-up all the posts on their blog and one winner will be picked at random to receive a $100 Scholastic.com store shopping spree.
