  1. Suzanne, I love your "Reading Rockets" link. What a great resource! It's not all about reading either. I like that it has information for teachers, but also children's literature and Professional Development webcasts. Great Job! Hope you don't mind if I borrow this one!

  2. Hey Suzanne. Now, I really know you are an avid Montessori enthusiasts and that one is an excellent resource for those in the childcare field. Reading Rockets has good articles for those who are new to the field; the information is easy to read with short, passages and articles. As always, excellent work... :)
