Congratulations to the students Felonica (Italy) and St. Raymond of Illinois Group D. 

You were the first to conclude the  D/D Project. Your portraits are all over the online descriptions. Probably will they not be very similar, but it is not easy to draw a portrait based only on the written description especially if you have not been very precise in explaining the details of your face. But this is not important. Instead it was important to know new friends and talk with them.  DD project pages.

These are some of the first portraits that you can find in  D/D Project. Congratulations to Charles Town students! If you want see the others go to our School Project pages

Registration is still open  and active project work is now in progress for the  Moon Over Us: Faces and Phases project. 

The project  promotes the observations of the Moon by students on different continents. On the first day, students take a survey. Durning the project, students learn all about the phases of the moon and how the face of the moon differs in the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. Each evening students observe and sketch or take pictures of the moon beginning April 7, when the moon is full, and ending May 14 Then students create webpages with their observations about the changes each day. Read more at  http://www.kidlink.org/drupal/project/moon

     åƒæœˆé¥¼æ˜¯èŠ‚日的另一习俗，月饼象征着团圆。像葡萄、西瓜等象征着团圆的水果也被人们摆上餐桌。如今月饼已经成为了中国饮食文化的一部分。传统的月饼内馅多采用植物性原料种子，如核桃仁、杏仁、芝麻仁、瓜子、山楂、莲蓉、枣泥等，对人体有一定的保健作用。如今，月饼的品种已异彩纷呈，各种口味的馅料都被用到了月饼的制作：如冰皮月饼、冰激凌月饼、果蔬月饼、海味月饼、椰奶月饼、茶叶月饼等。

YangL writes: "Another costume in the Mid-Autumn day is eating the moon cakes. The conventional moon cakes are round so that they represent the reunion is Chinese culture. The traditional moon cakes stuff a great deal of palatable ingredients, such as walnuts, almond, seeds of hawthorn etc. Nowadays, we add more delicious moon cakes, such as ice-cream moon cakes, fruits moon cakes, seafood cakes etc."   Read more...
