ALL-DISTRICT BOOKS:
Class Act Creative offers a very special
program for elementary school districts,
Project Arts RESPECT,
that culminates in a trade paperback, bookstore
quality publication of student art and writing.
We also offer the publication

1. Project Arts RESPECT:
This literary and visual arts project, which includes two-day programs in each
of five district schools, addresses themes of respect, kindness, integrity,
empathy and peace-making.
The project culminates in a trade
quality book of student advice illustrated with black and white line drawings that can be sold in
area
schools and the greater community for district

Wise Words for the World:
Children should be seen and not heard? Not at Class Act Creative!
We believe that when adults learn to listen well, children have important things
to teach us. This
publication
is an all-district (or single-school) book that offers advice from students about how
both children and adults can make the world a better place. Teachers are
encouraged to address
issues of respect, kindness, integrity, empathy, peacemaking, etc. in the classroom and help
students write and illustrate their best advice for creating a better world.
