Hello My serviced was down for two days so I may have missed a few postings. Here are the examples netters sent to me. Enjoy! Bev Boyd Baysid Secondary School Belleville, Ontario bevboyd@blvl.igs.net When our students come to school on April 1, they won't find their regular classroom teacher taking attendance. We put all our names in a hat and then drew out the class we would teach for the first hour or so of the day. When the kids come in we plan to say that we ARE their teacher. What do they mean, where is Mrs. Doe? :) The classroom teachers, custodians, librarian, interrelated teachers are all involved. Plus this will give the classroom teachers a chance to see that I really am a teacher and not just the lady who shelves books. :) We're an elementary school of 430 students. I had good fun with the date due cards. This works if you are still putting pre-stamped date due cards in the pockets of your sign-outs. I generally prestamp the date due cards in black ink. On April 1 I take the prestamped cards which read---in black ink----due "April 15", and I add a red ink stamp under it that reads, "April 1". When the more perceptive kids are worried that they have to bring them back the day they borrow them, I say April Fool and then reassure that only the black date counts. This year I think I'll do a teaser over the loud speaker that there is a special April Fool joke that kids can enjoy if they borrow a book. Joan
