http://expertvoices.nsdl.org/polar/2008/03/01/issue-one-is-live/ This blog is focused on helping elementary teachers become more knowledgeable about the polar regions and providing best practices on how to integrate polar concepts into their teaching. Ideas for connecting science and literacy through literature and writing, exemplary science activities, incredible pictures, tales of adventure, and stories of indigenous people and amazing animals will be part of each posting.

I have been trying to encourage interest in the International Polar Year at my elementary school in Canada. This has involved an endless search for resources, current information and news updates whilst attempting to convince others of the Polar Regions' importance and the reality of IPY! These related ideas have formed the basis of my work in a Multiple Literacies/Fine Arts/Technology program for grades 3-6 at my school. Finding your concise and informative online publication geared toward elementary teachers and students has encouraged me to continue! Sincerely, I thank you!
