Dear Friends,

Hope this message finds you well. I am receiving an award from the Ministry of education in Israel for my work. It is called a Teacher who made a difference in English teaching. There are four districts in Israel and in each district one educator is chosen from elementary school , junior high and high school. I was chosen from the elementary school section in the central district. It is a huge honor and everyone at my school is very excited!!
The head supervisor called to tell me and said they are overwhelmed with what I am doing for English teaching and technology! The kids are also very excited about this and I wanted to share this wonderful news with all of you.
Right now we have put up some information about Purim our Jewish Halloween. You can see it on share:

Globaldreamers and all of your wonderful contributions have brought me so much happiness and they could not ignore this work!! Thank you all so much for your wonderful contributions.
Hoping to hear from all of you soon.
With much friendship,
Marsha Goren

We are now in the holiday season and Chanukah is on December 5th and we will be off for a week. Our next project is in honor of Christmas , Chanukah and all of the holidays we celebrate during this joyous season. This beautiful lesson can be an inspiration to all of us and to the kids around the world. Please send us stories the kids write after having read and heard this beautiful story. We would love pictures of Christmas trees, of Chanukah, animations, banners, drawings , movies of your classes and even singing.
Let us all continue sharing our dreams and the joy of these wonderful holidays together.

My 5th graders have written about Chanukah in the Jewish holidays.
There are also some great materials there you can show the kids.

Hello friends!
I am writing to tell you all I had a fantastic trip to Rome and I also met special friends Lieven from Belguim and Maria Teresa of Italy. It was so wonderful spending time with both of them.I met so many wonderful new friends from around the globe and many people were so amazed at what we all do together to make our world a better place.

Lieven and Maria Teresa both received awards from the Global Junior Challenge and I am so proud of both of them. I was on the international jury and it was an honor and a privilege. You can see pics from my wonderful trip which included being a guest at the honorable President of the Italian Republic Girogio Napalitani. It was so exciting!!

Dear Friends,
The Jewish holidays are here and we will be off until October 8th. I want to thank the many educators who have been sending fabulous materials to school events and our schools on share. There are great schools and materials. Enjoy.

Our lastest project is a scarecrow project.
See: http://www.globaldreamers.org/share/07scarecrow/index.html
Educators and their students are invited to send materials about fall, Halloween and pictures. We will be delighted to have them for everyone to enjoy.

I will be leaving for Rome early Tuesday morning to participate in the Global Junior Challenge and needless to say I am thrilled. You can read about the Global Junior Challenge at http://www.gjc.it

Click on the award ceremony and international jury and you will find me there! I am honored and will be presenting Globaldreamers at the exhibition and am looking forward to all of the excitement.

I will also be meeting three of our Global educators and friends,
Maria Teresa and Pino from Rome as well as Lieven from Belguim!!!
I will try to document my whole trip so you can all read about it on Globaldreamers.

Please keep in touch.
Sincerely,
Marsha Goren

Educators can send information about their schools and cities and we will add to share for everyone to see.

This year Israel will be celebrating its 60th birthday and we hope you will all take part in our activities and learn about our country too.

I was chosen to be on the international jury for the Global Junior Challenge in Rome, Italy. It is a technology competition supported by the Municipality of Rome and I will be going to Rome at the beginning of October and I am very excited.

Looking forward to hearing from all of you.
