Writing is FUN.
Fun, we tell you!


Especially when it's combined with bookmaking, illustrating, and painting.

Or when it involves dancing and creative dramatics.

Or when you're writing and making art with kids in faraway countries.

That's how we teach writing. Check us out.


 

It's Nearly Spring!

And Blue Planet is out in the schools again this semester, bringing creative writing and the arts to students all over Palm Beach County.

What we're most excited about:

♦ Connecting local kids with students at the American International School in Bamako, Mali

♦ Linking kids in Florida with kids at Habla: The Center for Language and Culture in Mérida, Mexico

Students will be crossing borders and connecting cultures as they use the internet to write and make art together. And thanks to technology, they'll even be meeting each other "in person."

Stay tuned for the exciting updates as the workshops unfold in all three countries!
