Writing • E-mail • Submission Information • Graphics • Confirmation 
  1. WRITING

    Before you start make sure you have parental permission for your students to participate in a web-based project. Feel free to use our letter of permission.

    Using the words of Martin Luther King Jr. , "I have a dream" as starting point students share their vision of peace for the new millennium. The writing should begin and end with the words "I have a dream" and be from 3-7 lines long. Choose one idea, then elaborate by giving examples or details.
    Examples:


    I have a dream...
    That peace will prevail on earth.
    Everyone can learn to forgive.
    Everyone can learn to share.
    Everyone can learn to listen.
    And that includes me!
    I have a dream.

    I have a dream...
    That children in the world will be safe and free from harm.
    Every child deserves to have a family and a home.
    Every child should be able to go to bed without hunger or worry.
    I have a dream.

    Younger students can draw pictures using programs like KidPix or pictures can be hand-drawn and then scanned.     Use any program you have that will allow you to create and save in gif or jpg format.
  • You can save the file template.htm to your computer to help you make your page. See a sample page created by kids.
