From: "Patti Weeg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sun, 8 Sep 2002 16:36:41 -0400 Subject: Grandmother and Me: welcome to our project! Hello friends, This message is for all of you who would like to participate in the "Grandmother and Me" project. Come join us! The main project webpage was designed before KidSpace was developed. You can see it here: http://www.kidlink.org/KIDPROJ/grandmother/ There are special topics for each month and here is our topic for September: "Classes or individual students will introduce themselves to the other participants. Share with others the word or words for "grandmother" in your native language. Tell us what you call your grandmother and tell us what makes her very special to you. What is the most important thing your grandmother has taught you?" ----------------------------- We'd like to know who is participating in our project. Would you please send an introduction and tell us a little about yourself or your class? There are many different ways we can address grandmothers. My little granddaughter calls me "Granny" but maybe you call your grandmother by another name. If English is not your language, please tell us the word for grandmother in your language. Tell us what you call her. Classes may have their own place in KidSpace to post student text and images. http://65.42.153.210/kidspace/start.cfm?HoldNode=615 If you would like to participate but don't have a place in KidSpace yet, please write to me and request one.

For several years I watched high school students struggle with the Microsoft Word Resume templates. Unfortunately they are designed more for professionals than high school students. I decided to create my own and it has been a wonderful success. It is in a very basic table form. It includes Objective, Experience, Accomplishments, Activities, Interests, Education and References. If this could be of use to your students I would be willing to share it with you. It is in Microsoft Word 2000 format.
