YOU ARE THE EDITOR

http://edweb.sdsu.edu/courses/edtec596/Editor/Editor.html

Imagine you are the editor of O'Farrell's literary magazine, and you are looking for student authors to contribute. You have collected some poems and short stories from some of your friends, but you think it would be neat to include work written by students at other schools. What are you going to do?

Check out the following web sites containing student work and pick at least five poems or short stories to include in your magazine. Remember to write down the students' names, what school they go to, and where all the kids are from because you want to give them credit for their work.

GOOD LUCK!!

Resources

Here are some sites that contain student work from all over the world that you might be interested in exploring. Be sure to look at at least five sites:

Granby High School

Cyberkids

Teen Writers

I Live on a Raft

Kidzpage

The Song of Moses

Cool Writers Magazine

Alter Ego

Slummit

Children's Art Museum

Tales of Enchantment

Positively Poetry

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Great job exploring the web, finding student work for your magazine! You have just been nominated for student editor of the year.

Now that you have seen what is available on the World Wide Web, consider making your own web-based literary magazine full of poetry, short stories, artwork, and reviews. Why not contribute your own work to one of the sites listed above? Think of the possibilities that lie ahead.
