School is More Than a Building

Have you ever done a storybook walk? This Storybook Walk Edition of School is More Than a Building will make doing your walk a breeze. Illustrations have been set up so that each spread matches up perfectly in the middle and page numbers have been added for easy sorting. In addition, each spread contains activity and movement prompts, such as "Give your neighbor a high 5" or "Pretend you are a planet and spin around 5x!"

A great school is so much more than a building... it is a place where children feel accepted for who they are. It is a place where kindness and empathy are commonplace. It is a place where children know and feel that people are there for them and that they are safe and loved. With its delightful watercolor illustrations of school life, School is More Than a Building paints a positive picture of a school environment where children know and understand that the people who work there care and look out for their best interests. Children are reminded that they are part of a very special community and that schools are there for them. Is your school more than a building?
