Vote

If you haven't voted in the past 24 hours would you mind heading over to vote for Teaching Learners with Multiple Special Needs in the 2008 Weblog Awards?

TLWMSN is slowly losing ground and I am hoping to keep a special education blog in the top five.

You can vote once a day, every day! (Until January 13th.)

News

First off yesterday's post was number 700!

Secondly voting has begun for the 2008 Weblog Awards. Last year TLWMSN tied for seventh. This year let's put a special education blog in the top five.

You can vote once a day, every day! (Until January 13th.)

Please pass this on to everyone who might want to vote!

Finalist

This little blog has been chosen as a finalist in 2008 Weblog Awards Education Category!

Voting isn't open yet, but I am hoping you all will cast your ballots on January 5th when it begins!

(You can still vote for TLWMSN in the Edublog Awards though! - TLWMSN currently has 42 votes, which is 3% of the vote. We are the only sped blog there too.)

Apparently there were 5,000 nominees in 49 categories, which gives a 1 in 10 chance of being chosen as one of the 10 finalists in a given category.

Here are the finalists for education (sorry they are not linked - it is late and I am tired):

2008 Edublog Awards

Thanks to a nomination by the wonderful Patrick Black at Teaching All Students this blog (Teaching Learners with Multiple Special Needs) is up for a 2008 Edublog award in the category of Best Individual Blog. Please go vote, forward to your friends and family to have them vote. Have your students vote. This is one of the few special education blogs nominated in any category.

P.S. It is likely December 8th that this blog will also be up for "Best Education Blog" in the 2008 Weblog Awards (we were nominated 8 times).
