Congratulations to Cody, Marisela, Michael, Vida, and their teacher Mrs. Lynn Thomas at Webster Elementary School, Webster, Florida, for winning blue ribbons at the County Curriculum Fair, and Honorable Mention in the Toshiba NSTA Exploravision Awards contest! They invented their own Reading Tutor. Then Cody found Project LISTEN on the Internet. Thus began a wonderful correspondence. Way to go, kids! You too, Mrs. Thomas! Return to top
