ASCD Inservice: What Does a Whole Child Education Look Like?:

What Does a Whole Child Education Look Like?

A whole child education is something that everyone agrees about in principle but few can articulate in detail. What exactly does it mean to say students should be "healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged?"

ASCD Express is looking for short, 600 to 1,000-word essays on the theme "What Does a Whole Child Education Look Like?"We welcome articles that illustrate the elements of a whole child education and show how the interplay of different areas in a child's schooling can be addressed through thoughtful planning for classroom and school activities.

Guidelines for submissions are here. Please send us your submissions by December 19, 2011.
