Hi!! I would love to win this! I would love to go to Vegas for one, but I would love to see all of the presenters, including you! It would be like a dream come true! We haven't had any paid professional days for years (no class budget either!)This would be like a cake with lots of buttercream icing and jimmies sprinkled on top! Can't get better than that!! Here's hoping! Amy :)

I would love to win a trip to this conference becuase I have not been able to attend any conferences for many years, thanks to budget cuts. There are so many great people to learn from,and I would love to meet you!

*Thanks for giving me a shout-out!

What a great giveaway!!!!Thanks for the chance to win.

Wow! This would be a perfect trip for me! I have always wanted to go! My students would benefit so much from this and I know I would learn so much!! Thanks for offering the chance to win!!!!

Wow, this would be a great opportunity to win! My district has no funding for professional development, so I haven't been to any that I haven't paid for out of my own pocket in years! I REALLY REALLY wanted to go to I Teach K this year, but with a baby on the way, I just couldn't pay for it all myself. However, if I won the registration, then I could go with no worries/guilt! I teach in a high poverty school and I know that all the ideas that I would get at I Teach K would really improve my teaching and their learning! I am crossing all my fingers and toes!!!

Jennifer @ Herding Kats in Kindergarten

I would love to have the opportunity to go to the national K conference with a co-worker! Our district is not paying for any conferences and I would love to learn some new tricks!

I would love to win this because I teach at a private Kindergarten that does not have the funding to send us to professional development. All the professional development I go to is paid out of pocket. Plus it looks super awesome!!!

I would love love love to win this! I can't imagine all the great ideas and learning that will take place! Thank you for the opportunity!

I get sooo excited when I read about the ITK Conference!! And then, I remember that my school doesn't have the money to send me to something this amazing! I would learn so much and bring it back to my classroom, where I could grow to be an even better teacher for my kiddos! :) What an AMAZING GIVEAWAY! Thank you for the chance!! :)

Peace, Love, and First Grade

I would LOVE to win this trip. I love meeting and learning new things about Kindergarten and to have the opportunity to be around such great people would be fantastic.

I would love to go to ITK because I was brought back to Kindergarten this year by my Principal. I have missed Kinder due to being caught in a Looping situation that once ended, you were stuck where you were at that moment. I have always been a Kindergarten teaching in my heart and soul, and I missed it (I was traditional K from 2000-2006, and then I started Looping K-1, and from 2009 - 2012 I was traditional 1st). This would give me (as well as my friend who was brought down from 2nd) a chance to get on an "even playing field" with the other 15 Kinder teachers in our school. It would present me with the opportunity to be with like minded individuals who know the challenges of teaching K and who want to present as much help in educating our babies as possible. As a mother of 5, going anywhere is also not something that I can generally do, so if I were to win this, it would be a trip of a lifetime for me!!! Thank you guys for all that you do! No matter who wins this giveaway, you all are AWESOME for giving the chance and opportunity to attend!

Awesome! I was just talking with my coworkers about how we wished we could go :)

Fantastic workshop opportunity. I feel like you can never learn enough :) My co workers and I have been talking about this workshop and how we wished we could go. It would be a dream come true to go to Vegas and meet so many wonderful educators. :)

I would love to win this! As a second year teacher I feel like there is so much to learn and see. I feel like my kiddos and I would benefit so much from this opportunity to network and see how others are adopting the common core! Thank you for hosting this!!

Courtney

I have wanted to go to the I teach K! conference in Vegas for years!!! I would love the opportunity to learn more about the best grade level in the world! My kinders would reap the most benefits because of all the new things I could use in my classroom. This is an AmAzInG giveaway!
Sara
Polka Dot Kinders

I just moved back down to kindergarten after over twenty years of teaching other grades. I would love to get all kinds of great ideas to use in my classroom!

I have only taught Kindergarten one year. All my other years teaching have been in 1st grade. When I first went to Kindergarten, I was amazed at the different. I would like to go to the conference to learn where to start the year with my class.

I would love to win this! I teach special ed kindergarten, and I think that attending would help me in so many ways, and give me so many new ideas!

Carolyn

My mom and I both teach kindergarten and have always wanted to go to I Teach K!, but with all the travel expenses and conference fees we have never been able to do it. If I won I would take my mom with me and we would definitely be excited to bring such wonderful new ideas back to our classrooms. We both teach all day kindergarten, which is new in our district and I'm sure the sessions at I Teach K! would help us grow this new district kindergarten program! Thanks for the opportunity to win!

I would love to go and have the opportunity to take a colleague. I Teach K has been one of my all time favorite conferences. I have not gone in several years although I have been yearning to go. This would be wonderful!

Elizabeth

I would love to go to see all of the great presenters listed:) Oh my gosh all of those people in one place at the same time. We don't get to do much in our little town as far as professional development so this would be a wonderful opportunity! I have been to a K conf. in the state of Nebraska, but this would be way more wow!

Hilary,
This sounds great, but I don't teach kindergarten anymore! Good luck! I know that you'll rock! I've learned a ton just stalking your blog, you'll be "Out of this World!" in person!

I would love to win this! It would be a dream come true to see these amazing presenters! Deana Jump has completely changed guided reading in my classroom & the opportunity to see her & learn more from her would be amazing!!!! My coteaching friend & I have been drooling over the flyer that comes in our boxes...just dreaming of going. I would be so very grateful!

I'm going to be out looking for a job this summer, so this would be an amazing conference to go to! Experience and so much learning! If I won, I would take my mom, who teaches kinder!

I would love to win this because I have a friend who teaches Kindergarten and we could work so well with more ideas for the classroom. Plus I'm just getting back into the classroom and I KNOW this would help a ton!

Holy cow ....I went to IL K conf and been saving money to take my coworkers and I to Vegas....I even won free hotel rooms ....I work with K-3rd and LOVED all the gals from IL Kinder conf, but I couldn't see everyone, but found so many ideas that I have used ...if I win this I would pay for the other two to go with the money I saved.....Thanks for the chance!!

This is the most fabulous giveaway! Thanks for sharing this opportunity.

This would be an AMAZING opportunity! I am a brand new teacher and I absolutely love teaching Kindergarten. This conference would allow me to broaden my knowledge of Kindergarten curriculum, classroom management, and teaching in general!!

Wow I would love to have the opportunity to go to Vegas and see all the wonderful presenters!! I was debating this when I got the flyer/pamphlet in the mail!! This is so exciting!

Yea! I got the rafflecopter to come up on the screen. I know that I would bring so many great ideas back to use in my classroom and share with my team. We love new ideas and tips. This would be an item to clear from my bucket list:) comptonhouse@bellsouth.net

We don't have the funding for conferences and I've NEVER been to Las Vegas before. I would bring my entire family down (from Alberta) for a little vacation and learn a little something while I'm at it! A Win-Win!

My co-worker and I have been talking about going for two years. And something always seems to come up. We would love to go . . .
Oh the possibilities .. . Vegas

Wow! I have taught Kinder for a very long time and have always wanted to go, but never had the funds! My school has very little funds to send anyone to a workshop! and I would love to go to Vegas to meet all you awesome presenters! Y'all are all Rock Stars in my book!
Cheryl

I'd love to win this!!

This is awesome that you are offering this! I've always wanted to go to the National Kindergarten Conference and my principal supports me going, but we don't have any Staff Development money due to budget cuts. Winning this would allow me (and my friend) the opportunity to go to the conference!

I just sent an email to my principal asking if we had money for this. She laughed. I have only taught kinder for 2 years and I love reading all the blogs to get ideas. I know going to the conference would be very beneficial to my students. They are capable of so much. I just want to give them every opportunity possible.

I teach 1st, but my heart is in kinder!! I left it there! :( I miss it dearly! I would LOVE to win this!!! My new district lacks in professional development so much. I just wrote a grant to our PTA asking them to pay for professional development I would like to attend. I would LOVE to attend this!!!!

What a great opportunity. I haven't had professional development classes in Kindergarten in soooo long. I know this would help our kindergartners so much. Thanks for the opportunity!

What an amazing giveaway! I think this conference sounds amazing! So many great speakers and a wonderful place to gain new inspiration to bring back and share with my colleagues and K friends. :)

Wow!!!!! Thanks so much for this amazing giveaway!!!!!!!!

This would be amazing! All of the best bloggers in one place! I would love to attend - professional development in my district has become non -existant.

I would love to win this! Pick the best reason:

A. Because I need to think less about standardized testing and reconnect with my actual learners
B Because it would be really fun!
C. Because I really love to learn and I love kindergarten
D. All of the above

Please Please Please
Thanks!

I want to go because it is really fun! =)

Oh wow! My kindergarten partner and I have wanted to go for many years now. We love new ideas and also would love to see the people that we "worship" on tpt and blogs. :) This is the best giveaway ever because our district never has money to send us anywhere. Thank you!
aaparsons@hotmail.com

I would love to win this trip! As a first year teacher, I would love to be exposed to the information that veteran teachers know! I also teach the lowest kinders in my school, so I need new and different ways to reach them!

I would love the opportunity to attend the I Teach K conference and take my mentor as well. This conference has been a dream of my mentor's and it would be wonderful to take her as a way of saying thank you for all you've shared with me. brittney.gmeiner@gmail.com

Amazing! Thanks for offering this giveaway. I Teach K conferences rock!!! I hope to see you all there. Terena at The Kinder Cupboard.

Debbie sent me, would love to be going to Vegas K Conf. for the 1st time. My K's & I could use some new ideas from you and Debbie to up our game!

My Principal already shot the idea down, so to win a chance to see many of the blogs and TPT teachers I follow would be a dream! And a friend too! Oh I can hardly stand the anticipation!

What a great opportunity to help K teachers grow! I'm excited to to see so many I Teach K presenters from blogs I love!

I will be able to gain lots and lots of knowledge that I can bring back to my school and classroom. I asked my principal and she said no :( so I really hope I get to win!!!!

I would love to have a chance to go to the kindergarten conference this summer. I was a stay at home mom for 15 years and I just finally went back to teaching! I teach kindergarten and WOW! so much has changed. I spend my weekends and nights blogging and searching to find new ideas in my classroom. I am so excited to be back at teaching and I know this conference would be exactly what I need. Thank you for being so generous.

Oh my, I would love to win this trip to the I Teach K conference!!! I had the privilege of going in 2007, as a trainer for my district.

I would love to go to this conference. I'm switching from third to kinder next year and I feel like I know nothing!!! All I've ever taught are grades 2-4. I know I'm in for a shock...but if I had this conference under my belt...it would be so much easier!

What an amazing opportunity! I teach 4K, and I would love to attend this conference. i follow the blogs of many of the presenters and would enjoy learning from them in person. It would also be great to be surrounded by early childhood professionals and to share ideas and experiences with people who truly understand the value of our work with children.

I would LOVE to go to this conference. I just got the pamphlet in the mail a week or so ago. I have never been to Vegas, so it would be fun to visit. I am completely obsessed with many of the presententers work and would LOVE to have the opportunity to learn from them. I have been in K for 3 years after teaching Pre-K for 10 years. I would love to learn new fun and engaging techniques that I can use in my classroom! Thank you!!!!!!!!!

I would love to attend this conference for many reasons. I would love to hear all of the amazing presenters while being surrounded by educators who share the love of the same grade level!! I would love to learn great new techniques for engaging my kinders!

I would love to attend this conference to get new ideas to bring back to my brand new Kinders in August. This would be a great opportunity for professional development as well! I attend the conference in Birmingham this year and loved it! I hope to win and get to go to VEGAS!

I would like to go to conference because I love learning and kindergarten is my passion. I would also love to meet you and the other TPT presenters. Although, I have taught kindergarten for 11 years, I never want to stop finding new ways to help my diverse learners.

I want to go to I Teach K! because being with a bunch of kindergarten teachers from across the country sounds like heaven to me! I can't imagine all the fabulous people I'll meet and great ideas that I'll bring back to my own classroom.

Jessica

I have been to the Alabama SDE siminars but never a National siminar. I would love to be able to attend this siminar with other K teachers from across the country and see what ideas they have for teaching the new CCS.

Enthusiasm is contagious, so to be in Vegas with these energetic educators can only make me a better teacher. I am positively giddy at the thought of winning ... thanks for the chance!

What a great opportunity in this time of reduced budgets! It would be great to meet with the awesome presenters and to recharge and re-energize my kindergarten batteries! All of the new ideas and inspirations would benefit my classroom and grade level!

I live in Vegas, This is my first year teaching K... I teach 2 half day sessions. Yes there are still some K teachers that teach half day. I have 31 kids in my am class and 27 in my pm class....I could use as many resources and training as I could get, but really can't afford to pay for this on my own. And of course with budget cuts there is no money in our school budget to go either.

I would love to attend this conference! I live and work as a kinder teacher in las vegas. I teach half day K, yes it does still exist!

I have 31 students in the am and 27 students in the PM and NO AID.

This would mean the world to me! I am dying for some more training and to learn more strategies to help me make 1/2 day students meet the common core state standards

This would be such a fun conference to attend!!

I would love to receive a chance to go to the conference in Vegas! I have heard so many great things about it! I would love to be able to receive more training and additional material/strategies to bring back to the classroom!

Thanks,
Trish

I am so excited that i follow Primary Graffiti on Facebook and she posted the link to your awesome blog and contest for the I Teach Kindergarten conference. I have been trying to figure out how I am going to be able to go with or without help from my school because I am so excited about the conference. I just moved back to kindergarten after being in other grades for the the past 6 years and I feel like I have missed so much and would love to be able to attend this conference. Thank you for your awesome give away!!

I learn so much at these conferences and from reading blogs like yours. I teach K would be a great way to inspire me to try new things over the summer!

I have taught Kindergarten for 6 years and LOVE learning new tips and strategies to use with my Kinder kids! This conference would be an amazing way to gather new resources and ideas. Thank you! :)

I would love to attend this conference! I am going to be a first year teacher next year and I am so blessed that it is in kindergarten! My school is transitioning from a 3-day kindergarten to a 5-day kindergarten. I would love to gather more ideas from experts as I help my school transition into 5-day kindergarten. Tnanks so much for this fabulous giveaway:)

Oh, please, please, please let me be the winner. iwillitryican@gmail.com

I went last year and LOVED it! It was the first time I had attended anything for K and how wonderful to be surrounded by teachers who understand K. We were lucky to have it partially covered by our parent group, but knew it wouldnt happen again. I hope I win as there is no way I can afford to go(singe mom). thanks for offering the chance! Lkn4cats@aol.com (I do animal rescue :)

Is there a way to enter if we don't have Facebook?

I had the opportunity to attend this conference last year and learned so much information and was able to take so many great ideas back to my special education kindergarten class! My school district isn't paying for professional development opportunities, nor do they provide outstanding professional development.

I would love to have the opportunity to attend this conference! I am beginning my student teaching in the primary grades this fall and I think it would be a wonderful opportunity for me to learn and grow as a future educator.
~Lauren

WOW, what an awesome giveaway!
Thanks

My teaching partner and I talk about this conference almost daily. We would LOVE to go and learn new things to take back to our kiddos- problem is...THE COST! This would be an amazing trip to win!

I am a new teacher, so this would be really helpful for me! Hope your presentation goes well!

I am at the tail end of my first year in kinder, and I can't wait to stalk up on new ideas for next year! Thanks for the chance to go!

This would be a dream come true!! I have been dreaming about going to this conference for YEARS! Thank you for the chance to go! MY FINGERS are CROSSED!!!

Oh, I want to go!!! I'm still trying to gather the funds. I believe that going to the conference would elevate my private school to a new level.
ReadWriteSing

Oh my goodness!!! I want to go so badly! I would love to learn from so many awesome teachers. I think this would help my kiddos as we transition into common core.

HI!

I would love to go. It would be a chance of a lifetime because none of my teacher friends or I,for that matter, would be able to afford to go otherwise. If I do win, it might be difficult to pick which presenters to chose from. Keeping my fingers crossed.,

Carol T.

I have always wanted to go to this conference, but have never been able to! My district would not pay for it, so it would be a huge expense! It would be so worth it, though! I hope I win!

Thank you for this incredible opportunity!! I went to I Teach K about 5 years ago and it was an amazing experience... it's so much fun being surrounded by other K teachers who feel as passionate about their job as you do!

Mrs. Stamp's Kindergarten

I would love to be able to attend this conference! I teach at a private Christian preschool/kindergarten and most of our continuing education is geared toward the preschool ages. I so miss being a part of the elementary learning experience! With all of the new requirements, I would have the opportunity to grow in my knowledge by attending!

Oh my goodness!!! I went to I teach 1st in Nashville 8 years ago and had the BEST experience! I would love to go to Las Vegas and learn from all the wonderful teachers out there in the trenches!!

I have been trying to figure out a way to get to this conference since I heard about it last year. I have searched for every possible grant and even considered donating plasma... This is my 6th year teaching and I am finally starting to feel like I am getting the hang of teaching K. I am ready to dig deeper and really discover how to teach all the common core standards so all my students will master them before the school year ends.

Ah so fun! I hope I win!

Oh my word! Attending this conference would be the icing on my summer cake!

I would love to win and take my kinder buddy with me! There are so many amazing teachers presenting and since we are the only 2 kinder teachers in our school,it would be incredible to meet so many other kinder kindred hearts!

What an amazing giveaway! I think the beauty of being a primary teacher is the ability to mold and adapt ideas and lessons to fit and work in a variety of ways. I teach first grade but have found so many inspiring ideas from my kinder teacher friends... I think this would be an incredible experience to meet so many teachers that inspire me, including you!
So excited for the results!

I would love to go to this conference! Forget the casinos and entertainment (well at least during the day!, I'd like to get some positive learning in.

Thank you for the opportunity to win a conference......My team is trying to go already so this just makes it so much better!!!!!

Wow Hilary, that is so exciting! Congrats on being a presenter. I bow to all of you presenters as it takes a strong person to get up in front of others and share what they know. My team and I were just talking about the K conference... we keep trying to get our principal to figure out a way to pay for all of us to go. But it hasn't happened yet. I would so love to attend the conference, just to soak up all the great knowledge and "gurus" that will be there.
Kinders on the Block

Wow!! I would love to go. I wasn't able to afford it the last couple of years, but I really wanted to go. There are so many opportunities to learn and grow and help my kiddos out. I would love to go. Crossing my fingers...

We were just talking about this conference the other day and wondering if we could find the funds to actually go! Now I'm crossing my fingers that something will work out!

I just got back from the NCTM conference with so many great ideas, I can't imagine how awesome a conference just for K would be!

I'm speechless! This is an amazing chance for some lucky follower and her sweetest friend! WOW!!!

i so want to win this! i've had to pay my own registration, my own airfare, my own hotel room, all of it for the last two years that i have went. it is the ultimate in kindergarten conferences! i would love to win this and be able to offer the other free certificate to a fellow teacher friend! Leigh Ann :)

What a great opportunity! It would be energizing and inspriational to be able to participate in this conference!

I am teaching kindergarten next year and I am so excited. I would LOVe the opportunity to attend this workshop!! I would love to take my teaching partner with me :)
HNattkemper[at]gmail.com

Thank you for the chance to win an amazing trip to ITK in Las Vegas. I have been wanting to go for many years and have not been able to afford the cost. I would love to go and bring our new Kindergarten teacher along with! Oh My Goodness the amazing learning that would happen!

I would love to have the opportunity to go to this conference. It sounds wonderful! I teach prek at a private school but would love the chance to attend a professional conference with a friend! Thank you!

This is so exciting! I would love to go to the conference. I am in need of new ideas and for motivation. My little school closed so now I will be working at a larger school. I am in need of fresh ideas. I hope I win. Thank you!

My teaching partner and I have been trying to figure out a way to go to the conference (aka - convince our husbands that we should go to Vegas for several days while they stay home with the kids!). If we win tickets....we HAVE to go, right?!? Seriously though, what a GREAT event. Fantastic presenters, amazing topics, and inspiring people to collaborate with at my grade level. Sounds amazing!!!

This workshop would be an amazing opportunity for me to improve everything that I do with teaching kindergarten! This is my first year as a kindergarten teacher and second year as a teacher. I still have a lot to learn! Creating independence in centers is something which I wanted to focus on improving this summer. This will help me to help my future students even more and help me with Masters in Early Childhood Unified Birth to Age 8 which I am starting this summer. Thank you for creating this opportunity for a lucky teacher! Some teachers like myself would not be able to go without this opportunity.

I'm trying to get my principal to send me to this but this would be so much easier!! OMG!! I want to win so bad! For me it will mean gaining so much more knowledge to help me become an even better K teacher! And to hang out with others who teach K will be truly uplifting! I will be able to bring back this knowledge to the other 7 K teachers at our school.

My other 2 Kindergarten teachers have drooled over the I Teach K brochure the past few years. This would be the best part of summer 2013 if I was chosen to go. I've never been to Vegas and would love the opportunity to enrichment my K classroom by attending this AWESOME conference!!!

Oh my gosh, can I tell you how much I am DYING to go to this? I have a super-busy summer ahead of me but I would make time if it meant I could get a free pass to the conference! Thanks for a great giveaway!

I have ALWAYS wanted to go to this!!! I teach Pre-Kindergarten and my best friend teaches Kindergarten in the same school as me. We are both always looking for new tips and ideas to use with our little ones and we both have daughters (me 1 and she has twins) that all will start Kindergarten themselves this fall! She is a single parent of three children and I would love to able to win this so not only I could go, but to take her as my free friend who shares my passion for teaching young children!

I would love to win this amazing experience!

Hmmmm...What I am hoping is that it will help me become a better teacher in regards to reading. I feel very confident with math, writing and other subjects but I don't feel I am doing the BEST I can with reading. I love reading K blogs and have learned so much but I want to sharpen my reading skills. Thank you!

I guess it will be good event and everyone who would go there will be satisfied

Oh. My. Lanta. I would DIE to win this. Time in Vegas {where I've never been} with my BFF {who is also a teacher} would do wonders for my teacher sanity...which we all know is a major factor in our student success. I will be on maternity leave next year for a few weeks but having so many fun & new ideas to try from the conference will help me leave my little girl at home and get back to my classroom with excitement instead of dread!

Whoops! In my excitement, I didn't follow the directions. Umm, a little typical! Okay, after a million years teaching grades 1-8, I started teaching a K/1 combination class. Kindergarten won my heart!!! I have requested a transfer to kinder next year. However, I have never, ever taught a straight kinder class. Where to begin??? How to manage 26 kinder students at once? How to create a schedule? My questions go on and on and on. This conference would give me the information I need to begin teaching kinder in August. A teacher who knows what she is doing would benefit the children. I look forward to being with joyful kinder teachers who are passionate about teaching and doing what is best for children. OMG! Being in the same setting with all of those amazing teachers would be so incredible!

I would love to go to the I Teach K National Conference!! I would learn so much about the CCSS that I could bring back to our school not only to help my grade level but hopefully to also help other lower elementary teachers! I would also like to learn about different ways to implement technology tools into my curriculum and classroom! Thank for the opportunity for a chance to win!

Would love to be a winner! All the ideas and tips learned will help me a better teacher!

Being a first year teacher, I need all the tips and techniques that I can get to get my kindergarteners to learn. I've been wanting to go to this conference so bad as soon as I heard about it! I would love to hear all the wonderful speakers and be able to pick up all their pointers! This would help me to be a better teacher especially since a lot of my kindergarteners come to me speaking little to no English at all! Thank you for the opportunity!!! Jennastanleyballo@gmail.com

I would love the opportunity to take a teacher friend and see some fabulous presenters in Las Vegas!

I would love to go to this conference! As we transition to the common core standards, I would love to get information and ideas on how to put this into practice in my classroom!!
