BOOKS FOR CLASSROOMS:
The Class Act Creative Classroom Publishing Package is designed for elementary school
teachers and students (grades K-5).
Here's how it
works.
WHAT
YOU DO:
- Choose subject matter for your book and assign
art and writing projects.
- Have each student write and illustrate
one page on 8-1/2" x 11" unlined paper. Total page count must be
24-36, including title page.
Bright colors reproduce best for
illustrations. Poster paints or colored felt tip markers work great. If students
use crayons, watercolors or colored pencils, they should outline their drawings with a black
marker. Text should be typed or written with a black marker.
- Collect provided Parent Permissions
for student work to appear in published form.
- Fill out the provided Project Fact
Sheet.
- Mail or e-mail the Project Fact Sheet
with your students' work to Class Act Creative.
For e-mail submissions, scan your student
artwork at 300 dpi's and hand-lettered text at 600 dpi's. Typed e-mailed text
must be sent in Word 2003 format. Send snail-mail submissions to Barbara Jean
Hicks, Publisher / Class Act Creative / 4456 Antigua Way / Oxnard, CA 93035.
Original work will be returned.
- Once you have received your classroom
book, send home provided order forms for parents.
WHAT WE DO:
- Create front and back covers and a
title page for your book.
- Prepare your students' text and artwork
for printing.
- Send your book off to our high quality
digital printer!
Single-Classroom books are printed
"As Is," no copyediting provided. We've found that teachers love to use the goal of a bound, published book to motivate their
students to do their very best creative work, plus practice revision and editing
skills. Think Language Arts standards. Technology and Arts
standards, too.
WHAT YOU GET:
- One copy of your classroom book
delivered to the address you provide.
- Additional copies at any time for $12*
each plus shipping.
WHAT YOU PAY:
Zip. Zilch. Zero! Your
classroom book is FREE!*
We ask only that you commit to sending order forms home to parents so they have
an opportunity to purchase a copy of the book. We also provide discounts for
teachers who wish to purchase classroom sets (20 or more) to keep or give to
students.
At this price we can offer only
ONE classroom book per school per year. Be the first to sign a publication
agreement in your school, or see if an
All-School
Publishing Package might better serve your school's needs.
HOW TO GET STARTED:
Send us an e-mail!
Type "Student Book" in the subject line. We'll send you a survey to find out
exactly how you envision your student book. Before you know it, the publication
process will be under way.
