This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Laurie for winning the gardening package! There are still a few days left to enter the Georgia State Parks package giveaway.

I’m so excited to offer the first giveaway on thelearningtutor.com!  Teachers have my utmost respect.  You put in long hours each day, give up a part of your weekend, and fall asleep while grading papers. I know; I’ve lived that life. When I was teaching, I usually  felt sad because my time with my children was ending,  but I also counted down the days because I desperately needed to decompress.

So if you’re like me, being outside in the sunshine with my hands in the dirt does more to restore my spirit than anything else. To help you do this, thelearningtutor.com  is giving away a gardening package, consisting of a watering can, flower seeds, a kneeling pad, and three pairs of Digz gloves. These gloves have reinforced palms and pads, plus an adjustable wrist strap so you can keep out the dirt while gardening. Digz gloves are sold at Home Depot.

This contest is open to all K-12 teachers in the contiguous U.S. who are currently teaching in a public or private school. To enter, comment below with the grade or subject you teach, plus a tip for refreshing your spirit. The contest ends Thursday, May 19. The winner will be chosen by a random drawing and notified via e-mail.
