2011
The Kindle prizes are awarded through the generosity of People's United Bank.
EYE was looking for 1 Teacher and 2 Players to recognize for showing us all how to
make the League great, how to improve basic skills and critical thinking, and therefore, how to raise test scores.
Well, EYE found not 1 Teacher or even 10 Teachers. EYE found not 2 Players or even 200 Players ...
EYE found thousands of Players and hundreds of Teachers who are great!
To show special recognition to the tremendous leaders in the League, here is a summary of the accomplishments
of the Kindle Prize winners and, in the same list, of the runners-up for that prize, who will be getting a League coffee mug
(for Teachers) or a Super Smart Monkey (for Players).
BAT2 ... This Teacher is an extraordinary leader who had several extraordinarily
strong Players this Season. This Teacher's nominations were focused
and all about putting in the work, so you can see why this Teacher is always a winner! - mug
BA5T2S19 ... This Player was undefeated at the top of Grade 5 in Regular Season and
achieved a perfect score in Week 5. Nominated as a hard-working
and generous team player, this Player shows us what a learning League is all about. - monkey
BA5T2S01 ... This Player showed productivity and persistence, and, EYE hears,
was a great contributor to team spirit through discussions and a willingness to
help others. BA5T2S01, long may you play! - monkey
BAT20 ... A Teacher with a strong record of Player performance during
the Season, and an impassioned nominator of a top winner.
Grade 6 teachers out there: Watch this one! - mug
BA6T20S18 ... This Player was at the top of the Gr6 Scoreboard in every week
but one, which, BAT20 told EYE, was a growth experience for a true team player,
and an example to younger players that you CAN keep going strong in middle school! - kindle
BET1 ... This Teacher's team consistently shows up at the end of the week
with all or almost all of the Players on track, and from what EYE hears,
those Players show a great work ethic and a strong, positive attitude! - mug
BE3T1S06 ... This Player is hard-working, consistent, and
a great value to the team. Let's see even bigger numbers in The Playoffs ~
your pal, EYE! - monkey

and, EYE hears, a positive attitude that has resulted in admirable growth.

awesome Season of Player performances and inspiration!
Want to see some green checks? Log in as BKT7! - mug

performance in Week 5 in that very competitive 3rd grade. EYE hears this
student is extremely helpful to team-mates in sharing strategies! - monkey

and inspiration, and shown EYE some great results on the data reports
and an impassioned nomination. - mug

strong nomination and Player performances show that it's possible! - mug

the top of Grade 7 during Regular Season. A great help to EYE, and

active and wonderful schools. EYE really appreciated the nomination
and all the green check marks! - mug
Regan4T5S23 ... One of 2 Players in the Season who made a perfect score - that's winning every game
at your grade level three times in a single week - and who loves it when the rest of T5
succeeds! ReganT5 tells EYE that this is a great example of a team player! - kindle
WolfT1 ... This Teacher has had most or all Players "On Track"
since the start of the Road Map. This Teacher's nomination was strong
