HSBS’ Edublog Award 2011 Nominees

28th November, 2011 - Posted by - 2 Comments

It’s that time again — nominations are open for the Eddies!

As I write this, I am picturing all the nominees practicing their acceptance speeches in the mirror. Of course, they are all in bath robes, speaking into a hair brush. They even have curlers in their hair. Yes, even Teacher Tom.

But I digress. Here are my nominations for this year’s Edublog Awards. I must add that there are so many amazing folks sharing ideas and resources that it was hard to pick only one per category, so naturally I just went with who would look better in curlers.
