We are excited to announce our latest foray into social media. We have teamed up with WeAreTeachers.com to help provide educators free access to resources and programs that bring together educators and businesses to share and promote innovation and best practices in education.
As part of our partnership we have a brand profile on their site. Check out the Studentreasures profile page. We also have a couple of our programs available for order in the community marketplace.
WeAreTeachers is the first network to include The Knowledge Marketplace that gives educators, schools and businesses the ability to sell and recommend education products. They are committed to making sure that every program in the community gives back to teachers in valuable and tangible ways. For this reason Studentreasures is proud to be a part of the community.
A major key to the partnership that we are really excited about is the opportunity to offer a micorgrant to interested teachers. Through our microgrant, teachers will have the opportunity to apply for a chance to receive $200 and a flip video camera to film their students participating in a Studentreasures publishing project. Look for more details to come at a later time.
Every student has a story to tell, the problem sometimes is giving them an avenue to tell it. Publishing students’ writing encourages the reluctant writer, strenghens their self-confidence, rewards interest and promotes a positive attitude towards literature.
For 15 years Studentreasures has been publishing k-6 students’ writing and illustrations into beautiful, full-color hardbound books for Free! In fact, over 300,000 teachers from 10,000 schools all over the United States have used our Free programs to publish over 6 million students. What we are most proud of is that from our Free programs we have given away 4 Million Free Books! That’s 4 million students that may not have been able to receive a copy of their book for whatever reason. But because our programs provide a free book for the class and for the individual (when participating in our Free School-wide publishing program) students have an opportunity to receive a free copy. No other company can provide this.
Participating in a Studentreasures writing project is an exciting learning experience. Give your students the opportunity to create real books they write and illustrate themselves.
Our company, Nationwide Learning, Inc. recently celebrated the publishing of our 4 Millionth Free Book! Studentreasures is a division of Nationwide Learning and has been publishing books for students in grades K-6 since 1994. A local CBS affiliate WIBW-Channel 13 was on hand for our celebration and put together this piece on our celebration:
We are now posting videos on our Studentreasures YouTube channel. There currently 3 videos to watch and we will continue to post more videos. Please feel free to subscribe to our channel on YouTube.

I have another addition to our Letters from Students category. This one comes from a student at a elementary school in Ohio that published with us. Here is her letter to us:
“Dear Nationwide Learning, Inc.
Thank you for making me a published author. I was really excited to see my book and so were my parents. I appreciate that you took the time to publish my book. I loved the smile on my parent’s face when they saw my book. One day when I’m older I want to be an author.
I hope that in the future you can continue publishing books for children.”
We love to see this kind of feedback from the students especially when our project inspires them to be a future author! Keep up the great work!
