Story
Calendar
After their story book, the Pestalozzi School Galdbeck (also called
"Writing School" in the literature)
published a story calendar in 1997. It is printed on both sides
of white 115-g-card, size A3.
The calendar starts in January 1997 and goes up to February 1998.
It was designed by the pupils in a slightly unusual style. Instead
of writing the days of the month in one block they are integrated
in a tree, a snail or a star. Many drawings and prints on the
page can be coloured in or decorated.
Including the covers it comprises 32 pages with about 250 texts
(creative writing, writing games,
creative texts based on literature, many drawings and prints,
limography, polystyrene prints...)
* Two small parts of the calendar * 
The texts have mainly been created
by children in "open learning" periods. The pupils also
read many of these texts for their parents and guests during the
annual " reading café" in May 1996 in the public
library of Gladbeck.
All 13 classes and the 2 reading clubs took part.
In addition to these texts you find some texts in the calendar
created by classes that printed a book in the writing-and-printing
workshop of the Pestalozzi school.
As we consider it important that adults give a good example you
will also find texts and prints produced by teachers of this and
other schools during a writing-and-printing workshop. We have
run workshops of this kind for teachers and classes for many years.
This year, 2002 we edited a new
story-calender, similar to that of 1997, you can have it sent
for 8 ¤,
it has 16 doublesided printed
pages for 15 months. Its printed in black and white and ihas the
format A-3 (45x30 cm)
