Dear Educators,
We pay close attention to the newsletter features you do—and don’t—like. Below you’ll find the “greatest hits” from the past school year, including our six most-read items (denoted by  ). Enjoy reconnecting with popular lesson plans, articles, posters, and other classroom resources.
We now have winners for our Spring 2012 student writing competition on the value of family dinners. Read the wining essays here, and plan to join our Fall 2012 student writing competition—details provided in August.
You have my gratitude for the dedication and smarts you bring to your students and your profession. Enjoy your summer!
 Best,
Jing Fong

 We’re delighted to feature four winning essays from our spring competition. Participants read and responded to the YES! article, “You Are Who You Eat With” answering the question, “Does it matter who you eat with and how often you eat together?” Congratulations to our essay winners, and a big thank you to all writers who submitted an essay.
