Hi, everyone!

I finally created a "Participants" page (link in the Sidebar) where I'd like you all to insert a photo and below it your first and last name. Then write a short text about yourself, including where you teach and what grades you teach. You will need to ask me for access to the page to do this. To resize your photo (about 100 x 100), see the tutorial "Resizing images". I'm sure you'll remember what I showed you.

I just added three tutorials to the wiki (see the Sidebar): Vocaroo (under "Audio and video"), Resizing images and Cropping/Cutting images (under Tutorials). I hope they help you remember things I showed you, espeically about the images.

If you need any help with downloading and installing Irfanview (the image program I used and showed you), please let me know.

I hope to continue uploading photos of Yakutsk tomorrow morning. BTW, it's already the morning of April 17 for you and it's 23:20 of April 16 for me. Enjoy your day! I hope to have a restful sleep.

Hugs all,    Teresa

Dear friends,

It's taken time to get back to my normal active and energetic self after two weeks in your wonderful country with such an intense program. However, I've finally uploaded the first two sets of photos. I hope you enjoy them. Day 1 in Yakutsk shows the warmth that surrounded me as soosn as I landed in your beautiful city and Republic.

I hope to start replying to all your audio and video messages very soon, as well as giving feedback on your wikis.

Hugs all,   Teresa
