The Internet, of course. Word Dance is a professionally designed and produced journal which is primarily for use in schools as an innovative learning tool. Students from around the country can share their writing and artwork with children and adults all over the world. Today's technology and the creative efforts of volunteer Web designers provide world-wide access to Word Dance magazine. Teachers usually submit the writing and artwork of their students, although students may make submissions on their own.
Teachers believe the magazine provides the students with needed recognition for a job well done.
Getting published boosts self esteem and encourages students to write more. I believe that kids can appreciate quality. They therefore see writing as something that is not a chore, but something pleasurable. Creating the Web site for Word Dance was a collaborative effort. Stuart Ungar provided all the content needed to bring Word Dance to the world.
