I would like to several new sections in the newsletter. One is humor of the day. I would appreciate any true stories in your classroom that are humorous that might be suitable for this newsletter please send them to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The second section that would be nice to have are favorite sites submitted by readers of this newsletter. If you have a favorite site on the net for resources for teachers please submit it and I will put in it the newsletters. Also if you have any questions, requests or queries that you would like posted I will place them in the newsletter as well. This is your newsletter and would like to make it more that way. Send any favorite sites or requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The third section - if there are any teachers out there that would wordsearch puzzles for classroom (spelling, reading and other lists) please submit them to me and I will post them online. My next project is to have a wordsearch puzzle page. It would be especially nice to have grade level spelling lists to create the wordsearch puzzles. Please include the title of the book where the word list came from if applicable. I am also considering putting crossword puzzles online. The words listed would need to be one word and very short definitions. ========== All these links and more can be found at Teacher Stuff - http://www.a0kteacherstuff.com ============ If you wish to subscribe to this newsletter click on the link listed below and choose the subscribe option. http://teacherstuff.listbot.com ====================================== If you miss an issue of this newsletter (since December 7, 1999) you may find it on Net-Happenings K-12 Newsletters at http://scout.cs.wisc.edu/caservices/k12-news/index.html ====================================== Good Thoughts for the Day Every good thought you�re thinking is contributing to the rest of your life. ====================================== The A0Kteacherstuff has had several new pages added.

They can also be found in very small numbers throughout the rest of Canada and the USA, but they are making a comeback.
