If you are going to do Classroom Publishing (CP) then most likely you will need to set up what we call a Publishing Center. This is the area in your classroom that is desiginated for the students to work on their book projects. This area usually consists of computers, dictionaries, reference guides, colored pencils, sketch paper ect. We can assist you in setting up this center either via telephone, videos, or in person (If you are in the Arizona area).
This area should also contain at least one computer so that students can transfer their writings onto one of our book templates. Book templates will give you a good idea on how many pages your book will have.
The computer can also be used for the writers to send emails, view their class site or do research on their topic.
A Publishing Center is not mandatory in order to do CP, but it is highly suggested. This area should be off limits to any students who do not have any desire to work on a book project. This recommendation is only if the book project is not a mandatory class assignment.
