Dear Teachers,
This is our 100th 10 Free Downloads newsletter which means we've highlighted 1,000 great free downloads to help make your teaching life easier every week. To celebrate, I came up with a contest with $1,000 in prizes plus a $1,000 bonus for your favorite plus another $1,000 for our favorite. I guess that makes it $3,000 total!
The contest is to redesign our 'It's About Time' banner, the one you see where we used to show ads. Here it is: 
Your job is to make it even better. You can keep the same copy or create your own while maintaining the same or similar idea. The only acceptable size is 300x250 and you can post up to 3. Voting will end next Saturday, April 28th at Midnight PST. Submissions and voting happen on our Facebook Fan Page starting today. Here's how:
The 10 banners who get the most LIKES on our Fan Page win $100 each and the one who gets the most LIKES wins a $1,000 bonus. We'll then choose our favorite to place on the site and award that creator $1,000. We'll reach out to all winners via FB to organize prize payouts. Spread the word on your blogs and have fun!

TpT SPOTLIGHT
Happy Earth Day. On TpT, there are now 867 Earth Day Materials to choose from and it's not too late to address this important issue in your classrooms. And tomorrow is William Shakespeare's birthday. Let's decide "to be" and turn the impending Earth drama from tragedy to comedy.
Two more sellers have surpassed the big $75,000 in TpT earnings milestone! Congratulations to Kindergarten teacher Deedee Wills of Belle, Missouri and to elementary grades curriculum developer (and TpT registered user #50 out of now 670,000) Rachel Lynette. They are 10th and 11th to reach this milestone, earned through hard work, creativity and skill all while helping thousands of teachers around the world. Pretty darned cool.
Meet new TpT seller Stephanie McMahon also of Missouri who has 10 products posted so far, half of which are being offered for free. Stephanie recently discovered the excitement of receiving her first "Product sold on TeachersPayTeachers" email notification, what some scientists have claimed to be more addictive than reality TV. Try it with caution!
Wow! So many of you have taken advantage of our new Buyer Rewards program called TpT Credits. It essentially gives you a generous 5% back on your purchases. Check it out.
To recap the rules of the "Redesign our 'It's About Time' Banner Contest", it starts now and ends at Midnight April 28th, PST. The banners must be 300x250 and you can post up to 3 of them on our Facebook Fan Page. Voting happens there so spread the word to your networks. The top 10 LIKED win $100 each, the most LIKED wins an extra $1,000 and our favorite, which will go on TpT, wins $1,000, too.
