Ms. Johnson,

I just wanted to call and tell you in PERSON this information, but via email seems to be better for you. In any case, my words are no less sincere. I am writing to thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge as well as resources with us during last Spring’s Ciber workshop at Del state for teachers. You all involved us with a hands on experiment to extract DNA from strawberries. You gave us FREE kits with supplies we would need to implement the investigation in our own classes. i took both the knowledge and experience I got from your workshop and the resources to share with my students. We all extracted DNA and the students were very engaged and interested. Thank you so much for your generosity because the information and time you spent with us has impacted a lot more people than what you started with. The  faculty and people I met there were so kind and generous too.! I believe in “Trickle Down-Ed-u-nomics” . This is an instance when that took place.

Thank you again for everything.The strawberry DNA extraction kit is SO VALUABLE to me and so was the experience.

Respectfully,

Erin Motley
