We'll spend a lifetime crafting our teaching in order to allow children to be the authors of
their own texts.
Donald Graves, The Child, the Writing Process, and the Role of the Professional”, 1975
“Publication is an essential part of the writing process.” The National Council of Teachers of English, 2004
“Not only does publication encourage students to write by creating purpose and vision, but it also serves to improve writing skills.”
The Effects of Publishing on Student Attitude toward Writing, 2000
“Publications work is authentic assessment at its best: a synthesis of analysis and critical thinking, planning, and relating to an audience beyond the classroom, and performance-based outcomes. Student work leads naturally to a portfolio of specific completed tasks, and publications skills positively support school-to-career progress”

Publishing student writing encourages the reluctant
writer, strengthens kids' self-confidence, rewards interest,
and promotes a positive attitude toward literature.
