Response to our Dewey website

[Suby Wallace <swallace@NIC.CRSC.K12.AR.US>]

Thank you so much, all of you who have already seen our Dewey Decimal
System website and commented on it.  The girls are just ecstatic over the
replies on how useful you think it will be for you and your students.
(It's only been password-unlocked 24 hours, and we've had about 40 written
responses.)

Several people have asked if they could add links to it on their school
home pages.  Please, please DO!  This has been an incredible amount of work
for us, but so satisfying to know it will be helpful to others!  Whether or
not we win a prize is becoming less important to them as they read the
thanks from everybody who tells them how much they will use it with their
kids.

Please pass the address around to any library, school, education, whatever,
listservs you might be on, or to any body NOT on a listserv that you think
might benefit from its use.   Share it all you want!

Several people have also asked me about ThinkQuest.  Go to this address:
        http://thinkquest.org
You can find out about ThinkQuest (grades 7-12), ThinkQuest, Jr. (grades
4-6; our contest), and there's also one for future teachers.  They have not
yet published a list of the 1999 TQJr. entries, as the contest just closed
at midnight March 31.  But, be watching for it, because I am sure there are
lots of other topics you might be interested in besides ours.

You can follow this path:
        http://thinkquest.org
        click on Library of Entries
        scroll down to "ThinkQuest Winners" and click on it
        You can choose the winners from each year (3 years of ThinkQuest winners,
and 1 year of ThinkQuest, Jr. winners) and see what's there.  Some are
wonderful sites, well put together by KIDS!!  (and their worn out  coaches,
I might add!)

Keep watching the TQJr page for the entry list.  It should be posted soon.
The TQ for jr/sr hi contest is at another time of year.

Thanks again for your support.  When your kids use it, PLEASE, if your
computers allow it, let them email our team.  So far, the adult input has
been wonderful, but they would also love to hear from some KIDS!

Have a great Easter weekend.  Hope your weather is sunny!
