Even though this week is Teacher Appreciation Week, teachers deserve to be recognized all year long! Starting this Thursday, we’re kicking off a post series titled, Thank a Teacher Thursdays (#ThankaTeacher). We’ll be spotlighting a handful of teachers who not only make a contribution to the classroom, but to the greater online teacher community. Feel free to read their blogs, follow them on twitter, and if you know a teacher that deserves to be recognized – tell us in the comments section!
