I am interested in participating in the Global Village News
this year.  My students are middle school special education
students.

We would love to hear new from different states and countries.

Please check out the message I have been posting and let me
knowwhich other message areas I should post it.

Thanks and good luck.

My States and Provinces Race follows:
          My 6th grade class in Falls Church, Virginia would like to
          see how many US states and Canadian provinces/territories
          will respond to a brief survey which will be created when
          school begins on September 8.  We think the "E-mail"
          responses will take less time than the "snail mail" surveys
          completed last year by younger students in our school
          system.
                Let me know if you are interested and one of
          my students will send you a survey to complete when
          school begins. We hope to create a database of the
          information obtained from the surveys.  Wish us luck
          and Godspeed.
                                        Thanks :-;
          P.S.  Welcome back to school

September is the month when K12net considers new candidates to
moderate each of its non-Channel echoes. While our sysops provide an
effective yet amazingly inexpensive delivery system, it takes
skillfull, imaginative and energetic moderators to stimulate and
guide the creation of applicable curricular content in our echoes.
Do you have the "stuff" that it takes to be a good moderator?

K12net moderators assume a responsibility to assert a skillful and
continuous managerial *and* editorial presence in their echoes to
stimulate the posting of lively and appropriate conversation and
information of a curricular nature by and for our worldwide K-12
community.

Moderators are appointed by the K12net Council of Coordinators,
usually through the Moderator Coordinator, (currently Jack Crawford)
for a term of one year expiring at the end of September. This term
may be renewable. There may be more than one moderator in the larger
echoes.

If you would like to be considered for appointment as a moderator,
please send a "resume" to Jack Crawford at 1:260/620 by Sept 21st
with the following information:

1. Provide a "topic sentence" (not more than 25 words) which
   describes the curicular and/or professional educator focus you
   propose to give the echo. Also include your ideas on any specific
   projects you would like to implement in the echo.
2. Briefly describe your background and professional qualifications
   in the echoe's topic area.
3. Describe your experience with international telecommunications-
   based conferencing and collaboration.
4. Describe the extent of your commitment to "assert a continuous
   managerial and editorial presence" in the echo.
5. Current moderators should indicate their desire to be reappointed
   and, in particular, address items 1 and 4 above.

IMPORTANT: Please limit the size of your "resume" to about 300 words!

I AM DEAF


PEOPLE LAUGH AND MAKE FUN OF ME,
  AND THAT JUST SHOULD NOT BE.
I CAN'T HELP IT THAT I AM DEAF,
  IT'S THE WAY GOD MADE ME.

BOYS ARE SHY TO TALK TO ME,
  BECAUSE I CANNOT HEAR.
BUT IF THEY KNEW ME VERY WELL,
  I WOULD BE A FRIEND SO DEAR.

SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT I CAN'T TALK,
  WRITE ON THE WALLS, I'M MUTE.
BUT THAT IS NOT THE WAY IT IS,
  MY WORDS ARE VERY CUTE.

MOST PEOPLE THINK THAT I 'M NOT SMART,
  CAN'T READ, AND CAN'T WRITE.
BUT I CAN DO THE SAME AS YOU,
  MY GRADES ARE QUITE ALL RIGHT.

SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT I AM DUMB,
  IT HURTS MY FEELINGS AS YOU CAN SEE.
I CAN'T HELP THAT I AM DEAF,
  I WAS BORN WITH WHAT GOD GAVE ME.

Hi Roger,
Thanks for your message.At the moment we are very busy and have to think about what areas we can investigate in working through you. Unfortunately most of the hearing- Impaired children on Visiting Teacher service do not have access to a modum. I would have ideally liked to use this system to set up communication with other hearing Impaired children in other states or countries for social reasons and of-course to improve their literacy skills and computer skills.      I will contact you in the near future 
after discussing some areas with my collegues and attempt to inform you of any professional development areas that may be of interest. In the meantime feel free to also let me know of any initiatives for hearing impaired that we may like to be involved in.
Cheers, Jacky Clark.--Visiting Teacher for Hearing Impaired.

When my hands were so little...
        You always held my hand.
        You taught me how to walk.
        'Cause you loved and cherished me dearly.

When my hands started to grow...
        I used to walk beside you.
        I held your big hand.
        'Cause I admired your love for me.

When my hands are fully grown...
        I am an adult now.
        I am holding your aged hand.
        'Cause I shall carry your love in my heart.

Tom, thanks for your letter I rec'd from Nina. I'll get back to you ASAP but at the moment I'm very busy!!!! Heidelberg is in Melbourne, Victoria Australia. What you have sounds great! I'll investigate this in the near future. I am actually a Visiting Teacher for Hearing Impaired students and we visit HI students in mainstream schools from pre-school, primary and Secondary schools. Unfortunately what you read is only for local interest. I just got carried away because it was the first time I had used a mod
um. I"ll contact you again in a week or so but I have not much time now . Apologies and any more update in education for the deaf in the UK. I'd be
interested in. Thanks. Cheers Jacky Clark.

This BBS has just become a part of K12-NET so have only just discovered this 
echo.

Finally an echo for musicians!

Here in New Zealand, all the music echos that come in are filled with 
discussion <arguments> about which music is better etc.  Until now, I 
haven't found an echo where there are REAL musicians!  Great!

Well, I'm play saxophone, clarinet, piano, drums, flute, and a variety of 
other instruments.  In New Zealand (south especially) professional musicians 
don't make much; and as a result, there aren't many around.  Most go 
overseas.  'tis a shame that a person has to make a name for themselves 
overseas, before they're recognised in their own country.  We've even lost 
Crowded House to the Aussies!

Alto's a pain in the <beep>... Not terribly difficult though.. I'm sort of on top of it here.. Had to use it a bit, playing 1st Trombone in our school orchestra this year. If you know Treble, Tenor's not too bad.. I can play Tenor too. (Bb treble that is!)

Dunno, I find the stuff =vile=. Well, I haven't had it in a long time, but it's still horrible I'll bet. :-)

While reading the booklet from Christian Lindberg's latest CD ("A trombone odyssey"), I see that Christian has worked with the Conn company and designed his own trombone! He now plays the "Conn 88HY". None of this Conn/Minich combined stuff like his last bone :-) He also has a range of trombone mouthpieces, but when the CD was done they weren't available publicly.

So for my next trombone I wouldn't mind an 88HY. :-)

Hello All,

    I'm a 16 year old guitarist from Charleston WV.  I have played
guitar for 7 years, the first 3 spent learning basic knowledge, and the
past 2 spent learning theory, classical, and music sight-reading.  I
have 2 years of school left before I go to college.  I am curious about
music scholarships.  Do any schools, either local to WV or out of state,
offer good music scolarship programs?  If so, what do the colleges look
for?  I'd like to know more about the topic, because I am seriously
thnking about applying for scholarship to as many schools as possible.
Any replies are welcome.  Thanks.
