Did you know that in Burma children bring a coconut to the teacher on the first day of school?
I'm a former elementary school teacher who has written a book about the first day of school in other countries. For years, I wondered why there wasn't a book like this--so I finally decided to write one myself.
In the process, I interviewed teachers, children, and peace corps volunteers all over the world. The name of the book is IT'S BACK TO SCHOOL WE GO! and I'm very excited about it. To learn more, or just to get some suggestions about first day of school activities, please visit my webpage at:
