SLP Homework Assignments


HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS:

Homework Assignments are normally emailed out Friday now as we do not have live online classes.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

1. First and foremost, we congratulate all who participated in our 2003-2004 session. Classes have resumed.

2. New option and invitation for all participants.

  • We are inviting all participants who want to create Ribbons for our SLP programme starting in the fall. You may submit Ribbons throughout the summer and through out the year. Here are the requirements:

  • Creating Ribbons
    • Ribbons are used by the Group Facilitators to send to participants upon their completing homework assignments. Thus, the SLP Programme needs about 40 ribbons a year so that a Ribbon may be sent out weekly to participants.
  • Ribbon Requirements:
    • No larger than 250 pixels on the longest side, no more than 100K in size.
    • Theme of ribbon and Congratulatory Message are up to the designer.
    • Ribbons are sent to the coordinator at SLP@pspug.org with a Subject of 'SLP Ribbon'. Include your name and URL for acknowledgement.
Again, thank you all for a great year.

Thanks
