I am looking for the website for Crossroads Project . This is a website full of math lesson plans and resources for elementary teachers. I have googled it and went through the first 15 pages -most of which were religious sites or names of schools. I would appreciate your help.

I am looking for a baby girl memory book for a single mother. All the ones I have looked at talks about the dad; or how mom and dad felt during the pregnancy. I would like a generic type book in which you only record information.

I'm probably one of the few remaining who does not care for Yahoo Beta. Is the unlimited email storage only applying to Beta? Just wondering as my storage meter is still running.

Since about the first of the year, I have noticed an increase number of spam in my inbox - alot are of the "notification you have won the lottery" type spam. I have used up my 500 blocked addresses. I report them as spam to Yahoo, but I am now receiving about 10-15 spam in my inbox daily. They are not the type where you can unsubscribe. I have erased 100 of my blocked addresses so that I can block more,but I have a feeling this really isn't going to help. I have had a Yahoo email account for over 8 years and this is the first time that I feel their spam filter is failing. Any suggestions?

We have been "told" that our school (K-5 grades) will be implementing a new lunch/recess schedule next year. This is coming from our Health Dept. through our Wellness grant right to our superintendent. In all the years I have taught (32), the children eat lunch and go directly outside for recess. Next year we will have to switch that schedule - now they will go out to recess and come directly in to eat lunch. We were given alot of "literature" to read about it but I would like to hear directly from some school systems and/or parents. What advantages do you see from this schedule? Disadvantages? How did you set up your lunch schedule? We have 18 classes with one cafeteria suitable for holding 6 classes but that's really too many. Hoping to hear from schools in various parts of the country! I am also on the committee to set this up, so looking for suggestions. Thank you!

I am in Level 4 on Yahoo Answers. Lately when I am rating answers, I sometimes get the message in red: "Sorry, we couldn't save your rating. Please try again later." This just happened again today. I had rated 3 answers to the same question without a problem and then got this message on the 4th answer. I continued and could rate the rest of the answers. Sometimes the message also says: "Your time has expired. Try signing in again." I am signed in so that is not the problem. Any one else getting these messages? They will appear under the thumbs up, thumbs down pictures.

Our school system will be adopting a new math series for next year. One of the series we are investigating is Everyday Math. I would like to know your opinion of this series from a teacher's standpoint and also from a parent's standpoint. What are the positive traits of this series as compared to what you were using previously? What are the downfalls?

I would especially like to hear from kindergarten teachers as that is the grade I have been teaching for 26 years. The math series we are currently using is Saxon. Any opinions of Everyday Math will be greatly appreciated.

My son-in-law is thinking of working for himself instead of a construction company. What would be the average cost for labor in the Ohio area? He would be doing roof repairs/flooring/painting etc.
