Every child has the right to education and these rights start from birth. Use the resources to learn about access to education. Then get student to take action!
During Global Action Week we want students to create a picture (drawing, painting collage, etc.) illustrating what a good childhood or education looks like to them. Post the pictures in the Gallery (to the right). Your class can speak out for quality education for all by submitting their pictures to the "Big Picture" on the Global Campaign for Education site.
Be sure to view all of the amazing artwork by students in K2 in the Class Gallery.

Mornings at our house are usually chaotic races to get to school on time. Once we get out the door, the rest is easy - a quick drive or a short walk and we're there. Take a look at this photo blog to see what children in an Indonesian village go through to get to school.
