Current Status - June 2004
Living Values Education has been growing quietly in Poland for several years, and is now beginning to bloom. This process is happening through the new availability of the Living Values: An Educational Program books in Polish. One of the major educational publishers in Poland, Wydawnictwa Szkilne i Pedagogiczne (WSiP), will be publishing the three Living Values Activities books as well as the LVEP Educator Training Guide. The songs in the
Living Values Activities for Children Ages 3-7 book were created with a special Polish flavor.
WSiP is the biggest national Publishing House for school and pedagogical books. All textbooks printed by them have the approval of the Ministry of Education. The first two books are printed already; and next two are going to be published later on this year.
Recently, an LVEP Educator Training at a secondary school, Gimnazjum Nr 3, was held in Katowice. The information about LVEP was presented and the workshop on the theme honesty was conducted. The training lasted two afternoons with 40 teachers. Participants enjoyed it very much and the Director expressed his gratitude with a huge bouquet of roses and written letter of thanks.
On the 13th of March in Warsaw, there was a program conducted for children ages 10 to 12 on the theme ?Respect?. This was part of a happening organized by the children?s magazine, ?Witch?, by Egmond Publishing House, for its readers. A photograph from the program is below.
We are currently planning to register Living Values Education in Poland
