Well, there's a few things that may/will happen with stuff that teachers
write up and send in.
1) I'm building content for our website - we've got a spot for stuff that
teachers send us
(<http://www.looneylabs.com/OurGames/EducationalIdeas/index.html>) but I've
just not had the time lately (Origins and Gen Con and stuff!!!) to get new
stuff up.
2) It might end up in a brochure or other publication - like as a quote on
the Wunderland website (www.wunderland.com).
3) And finally, anything shared on this list does encourage other teachers
in thinking about how to use these games in their classrooms perhaps in a
different way.
There's probably a ton of other things that can/will happen with submitted
things - and I'm probably leaving stuff out - but that's what's hit the top
of my brain at this point. What else would others like to have available
to them??

Where are you putting these things.... like the new rules for the games I
sent. where do these things end up again? I'd like to see the ways others
use these games as well.

cool! I'm glad it's working out so well!
I'd love to have your write up a testimonial on how well this works
for your school - and how it meets the needs of your children. I'm
not asking for a lot of work - just a paragraph or two, and permission
to post it so that other teachers can get inspiration from your hard
work!
thanks! You rock as a teacher!

Conno and Ki have very mild autism and are very, very strict with the
lettter oof the law... so if the composting card says "it's ok to look at
the bottom card first" They will insist we do EXACTLY as the rule says...
which states 'card' as a singular. Actually, I was afraid they would
have trouble with the game because of the changing rules, but they
really like it. I guess because even though the rules change, but there
is always a written new rule. When they were done playing the had to
sort and count the different types of cards.
I think everyone is happy now, thanks.
