will read Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume.
After reading the book, students will write their own tale of an
experience they've had in fourth grade. These stories should be
written using at least three paragraphs. All stories should have a
title. Student-drawn illustrations, if included, should be scanned
and emailed to Miss Hardison. Both the student and teacher's names
must be included with the illustrations. This project begins on March
1, 2002 and ends on May 1, 2002. Check out this
new Project internet project entitled "Our

The
Angel Project is an international craft activity sponsored by
Clapper Publishing of suburban Chicago. The company has invited
people to make ornament-sized angels in memory of the victims of the
September 11th tragedies. Staff members will collect the angels and
deliver them to New York City, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania for a
special memorial service Christmas week. The deadline for receiving
the artwork is December 7th, 2001. One design is for a New York City
firefighter angel, and the other is a simple clothespin figure. In
addition, we have linked to The Angel Project Web site where the
company has provided more designs. We think that making angels is a
wonderful way to remember those who lost their lives on September
11th. Even if you are not able to deliver the Angels to NY, we hope
this activity is one you can use in your classroom.

Online" a class of 24 Bulgarian high school students on the
Internet. They publish stories about their experience as students -
both in the classroom and out of school. They use this Web Page to
