My Peaceful Classroom

Let me just tell you that Peaceful Classroom has changed my life!! I am a totally different teacher today than I was 4 years ago. I feel that I am a much more positive and inspiring person and teacher. I want to thank you for helping that to happen. I am blown away by the response my children have taken to it. We read, write, discuss and role play each day to strengthen our understandings and passion for peace. It is just wonderful to be a part of it! I am so excited about the transformations and accomplishments that my school has made since adopting the Peaceful School concept. I cannot speak enough about it. I am constantly trying to refer other teachers to your books. I can't imagine teaching any other way now. I live and breathe peacemaking and my students are better friends and citizens because of it. So, again, THANK YOU!!!! I would highly recommend this book to any educator who strives to create a peaceful and productive learning environment for children. From my heart to yours, Stephanie Wallace Multiage Teacher(1st/2nd) Summerville, South Carolina

Immensely Helpful

After using Naomi Drew's first book Learning the Skills of Peacemaking, I decided to try this one. I loved it! The Peaceful Classroom in Action helped me integrate writing and language arts with peacemaking. My students really enjoy the activities, they're getting along better, plus their writing skills have improved. I highly recommend this book. Not only is it helpful, it's laid out in a way that makes all the content extremely accessible. I wish there were more books out there like this one.
