Fwd(2): Elem. School Newspaper

[Karla Walker <LM_NET@FC.MCPS.K12.MD.US>]

Hi!  I am initiating a school newspaper for my K-5 school.  I am
interested in suggestions, resources and samples of other school
newspapers written by students.  I have listed several questions below
which I hope to receive answers to.

1.  How many issues of the paper did you produce in one school year?
2.  How many students worked on the paper, and how were the students
selected?
3.  How often did you meet with the school newspaper student staff?
4.  What type of parent involvement did you include in the newspaper?
5.  What do you recommend in the way of supplies and a budget?
6.  What word processing programs have worked well with school
newspapers?

Please e-mail responses directly to me.

Thank you.
