We coach teachers on using international classroom-to-classroom collaborations to teach global competence and core curriculum. The mission of Blue Planet International Explorers' Bazaar & Writers' Room is to inspire students to write, to teach them the skills they need to write well, and to offer them fun adn effective ways to see their writing come to life.  Blue Planet believes that good writers can make a difference at three levels:  personal, where they can express themselves in a creative, constructive fashion; community, where they can advocate for themselves, their families, and their neighbors; and global, where they can further the cause of international cooperation and peace.
