Design your own!  Go to any electronics store and you can customize one with some software.  This is our opportunity to be creative.

It depends upon what you are fundraising for.  Perhpas holding a sign in the school year per minute?  or Silence would work (if you are known to be very talkative), or how about minutes writing on a chalkboard or minutes hanging from the playground monkeybars... that's a start!

I just took a college adolescent literature class and learned lots of fun things.  Is your assignment to do a creative book report?  I had to do 3 of them.  On one I used the "Real story of the Three Little Pigs".  I did a puppet show.  It was fun to do but took quite a bit of time.  I also did a book box once.  You read a story, I used "The Whipping Boy", and put 5 or so things in a box, or container from the story.  I used a basket for my container and put a loaf of bread, a crown, a Mr. Potato Head and a few other things in it.  You will have to read the book to understand.  The last one I did was the sequel to "Holes", "Small Steps".  I made a poster filled with clip art pictures from the computer of things from the book and called it an I Spy.  Then I cut out the letters for small steps and glued over the items.  It is meant to be a creative way to tell about a book you read instead of the boring old writing of a two page book report.  The thing to remember is to pick a book you like and have fun.

Well get 2 pieces of Cardboard paper,the lined paper to help them write, on the top write- " 2nd grade reading log" and then if you want to spice things up to close it- make sure you put it the way of like a notebook and then hole punch it and then take string and pipe cleaners and then close it.(If you know what I mean) and keep doing that for everyone. Then at school tell them to decorate the front page as pretty as they want it!!- Hope that helped!

I agree with Dr J. A journal with entries from students would mean a lot to me. I have been given so much over the years from students who mean well. I just don't know what to do with all the stuff. Even the cool stuff, like the signed plate I received last year. I don't know what to do with it all. But I have a bookshelf and would love to read and reread what students had to say about me and look at pictures they drew. Those always mean so much. \n\nIf it is a gift from just one student, then I think that the gift should reflect the time the student spent in the class. An original story about the student and the teacher which is bound into a book with yarn, etc. would be lovely. Or give a donation to the class in the form of a magazine subscription or some books. Be sure to write the student's name in the book as the person who donated it. This way the student will always be remembered.\n\nIf the teacher is moving away, also realize that she may not have room to take a bunch of knick-knacks and candles with her. But a book will always find room to travel! Good luck!

/wonderful willy wonderful LOl! I love this little snicker but I went to the total knowledge room of yours and well it isn't very diverse is it. I know you didn't ask for suggestions, but I jsut can't help my self to wanting to help you .\n\nAdd something or someone else besides yourself to this thing friend.. It is a lot of you and that is all. Try a new addition to it and do a comic book page or maybe your own monthly pinup calendar. You know put someone else's face and UNTATOOED body on the pages 1 through how evermany you have I was't going to download an active x and install it for one web site, so there you have it, what I saw and read was a whole lot of willy, no break from willy, need another added thing to enhance willies'image if you understand my drift. \n\nOkay marketing and advertiseing dept. is now closed as well as creative design.

As a public school librarian (K-8) I feel it is important to make available all books. However, budget constraints force me to choose mostly books that appeal to the most students. Captain Underpants may not be my choice for a student to read, however, if the students are asking for this title I will order it. What tends to drive my selection more is not self censorship but pressure from parents not to shelve a certain title. I try to preview  most titles for objectionable words, etc. and go from there. When I have a complaint from a parent I remind them that it is easier for them to check their child's book when they get home than for me to know what is acceptable for 500 plus students. An interesting thing to consider is the reverse, do we tend to pick books that appeal to us as a reader? I am a big Civil War buff and my library happens to have a dandy selection of books in the 970 Dewey decimal catagory!!!

Not a question, but I'll write it for you.\n\n"Dear whoever. I am proposing a search of sponsors for an event. -Thanks, dudes!"\n\nIt's good. Use it. Just be short and vague.

If you have any NASCAR races near your school, they are always looking for workers in their hospitality tents and food/beverage tents.  If not, try visiting www.computerfun.com for compatibility matches in your school.  There is no money to put up front and students (even teachers) enjoy answering questions and purchasing results to see who they're matched up with.  It even includes the top three people you should never be friends with.  It's all in fun and students enjoy it.  \nSome Domino's have pizza cards that you can sell for $10.00 and keep $9.00.  I know you said you can't sell pizza but do the cards count?\nIf your town/school has a May Day or Carnival type event then you can see if a local junk yard will haul an old car out to you.  Place a tarp under it and bust out any glass that may shatter and cause harm and then charge money for people to take a swing at it.  Great fundraiser if you have a big football game coming up and you can decorate the car with the rival's name and colors and allow people/students to bash it.  Make sure you have arrangements for the junk yard to come and haul it back again.  Roll up the tarp with any busted pieces/galss that have dropped on it and your area is clean again.\nLastly, try to get with a screen printer in your area and make pillowcases for your school that have "A Warrior Sleeps Here" or "I Dream in Black and Gold" substituting your school mascot and colors.\nThese are all great fundraisers for our school.  We raise money every year to send students on a 5 day trip to New York.  Good Luck!

Use seasons or cartoons. If its spring put up flowers and rain. For summer a beach with the sun an umbrella and maybe a sandcastle will work. Use puns and plays on words such as "We've been buzzy Beeing(with a pic of bees) super students"-KLTouray. If you have a certain topic you will be discussing maybe planets, put up a pic of the solar system.

Try a local community bank, real estate office,auto dealership, factory, or other very visible community business.We did this for a charity event. The sponsor(s) will want to see their name plastered on everything.Ask if they have a banner or something that you can display during games.Do not display anything for free. Get a corporate logo on pdf file & make sure all newsletters, forms, correspondence, etc. you send has their logo on it. Good luck.Big box stores(Lowe's,Walmart,some grocery stores can often help out w/ small amounts, $100.00 or so, and will often donate gift cards. Have you thought about a raffle?

That's what we did at our school, we started a cultural club and put together shows. Bake sales are good idea, just make good stuff. I dont know how big your school is or how much the school and the community values cultures, but maybe you could write something up about what it is your doing and ask local business to make a donation.  You could do this thing i think it's called slave for a day. where you auction off students to other students and they have to wear the clothes they tell them, they can put makeup on them, do their hair, and make them do silly things like sing in the cafeteria. obviously inapropriate things dont' work. Ok hope you get some stuff together
