Many months ago I set up
a Facebook page for this blog where folks could like the page and could have
yet another way to keep up with updates.
Last
week I was surprised to see someone had placed something on my wall that really
made me smile. HighBeam.com had stopped by my Facebook
home to advise the following:
To
thank you for all your hard work and dedication we would like to acknowledge
you by including History Is Elementary in our Top 10 Favorite Blogs for
educational research.
Now, isn’t that nice?!?
Notice my little badge is over in the sidebar.

In case HighBeam
is new to you….it’s a paid search engine including the archives from newspapers
such as The Boston Globe, The Washington Post, and Associated Press. They also have numerous trade magazines such
as Advertising Age and Auto Week and journals like The Journal of Education Research and The Journal of Social Psychology. All total a subscription to HighBeam provides access to over 6,500
publications.
Many thanks HighBeam
for the nod!
I would like to start
posting something a little more regularly on the Facebook page to interact with
you. While I don’t want to clog up your
newsfeed I would like to interact with you a bit more.
You are important to me…..I
appreciate each and every one of you so much!
So far I’ve gotten in
the habit of linking to new postings as I publish them….eventually I hope to
get in the habit of updating the page with pictures, a thought, etc. each
day. Don’t give up on me!
