What is a classbook?
A classbook is a collaborative effort where each
student contributes a page of text and a page of illustration to one
book.
Is the publishing
kit really free?
Yes, we provide teachers with the publishing kits
they choose. We also bind their original manuscript into a full color
hardbound book for FREE. (We only ask
that teachers send home the slips that offer parents the opportunity to
purchase reprints). Parents are under no obligation to purchase
anything. Most feel they make a wonderful keepsake for their children.
The classbook programs are:
May any grade do a
classbook?
Yes! Any class in any grade can create a classbook. They work
especially well for teachers doing a collaborative book for a variety
of subjects including English, social studies,math, science, language
arts, and more.
How do I participate?
The process is easy. Simply order your kit either by phone, fax, email
or through our website. We ask that you reserve a press date at the
time of the order. Complete your kit and return it to us using the
prepaid UPS label we furnish. Your published book and all the reprints
will be shipped to your school.
What is in a
publishing kit?
The kit contains all the materials necessary to create an original
manuscript. It consists of a title page, dedication page, all text and
illustration pages, and a cover worksheet for your cover illustration.
We also furnish a Teacher's Guide filled with ideas and step-by-step
instructions.
What is a press date?
A press date is an agreed upon date that completed manuscripts and
parent notes will be returned to Nationwide Learning. This will insure
that your published books are back to you in the time frame you need.
We recommend sending the kits, using the prepaid UPS label, 1 week
prior to the press date.
Can we write about any topic?
Yes! Some of our many popular themes include A-B-C's, fantasy, travel,
biography and autobiography, science fiction, family, animals and many
more. Your students are only limited by their imagination. This program
can be used for cross-curriculum or as a stand-alone project.
Are parents required to
purchase?
NO! Parents are under absolutely no obligation to purchase reprints.
All we ask is that parents are given the opportunity
to purchase reprints as they have been proven to be very popular as
keepsakes and gifts.
When and how do parents order
reprints of their child's book?
We suggest that the take home slips and envelopes we provide are
distributed to parents during the writing process. Parents simply
indicate whether or not they wish to purchase reprints, sign the slip,
and return it to the teacher in the envelope provided. Should they wish
to purchase reprints, they complete the form and return it with
payment. The teacher returns all slips with the publishing kit.
What is the cost for a reprint?
The cost is $14.95 plus $2.95 S&H.
What if parents purchase but
are dissatisfied with the reprints?
Those parents who choose to purchase reprints do so at absolutely no
risk. If they are in any way dissatisfied with the hardbound,
full-color reproduction, they may return it directly to Nationwide
Learning with a note saying so. We will issue a prompt, complete refund
. . . no questions asked!
