//**Leadership Zoomerang Survey**//: Complete the 15-minute survey regarding your leadership experiences during Year One. You will find this survey – and a clever kindergarten riddle- at:  http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/?p=WEB227NKPAYH8F Please complete this survey by **July 1, 2008**. Thank you!!!


 * Yellow Pages Ad:** You have many special talents and skills- and now’s the time to let others know about them, too! Perhaps you’re great at writing grants, have a green thumb, know millions of finger plays and songs, or integrate the arts into all areas! Maybe you specialize in developing literacy skills, creating dramatic play experiences, designing inquiry experiences, or using children’s interest to guide planning! We ALL want to know! So, use the Yellow Pages Ad template to create your own advertisement(s)- highlighting each special skill on a separate template. All ads will be made into a yellow pages “book” and shared with the KTLs as a resource to use! Submit all Yellow Pages Ad(s) via email to Amy by July 1, 2008. 
 * Technology Credit Form:** Needing Technology credits? Then, keep this form handy throughout year two and record time spent using the blog, wiki, and email for communicating among your region and with other KTLs and your digital camera and recording for your work for POK and documentation. You will then need to bring the completed form during the Spring 2009 PD Meeting to determine CEUs.
