These resources support educators in implementing the Responsive Classroom, Developmental Designs, and Building Academic Communities Through the Arts. Some are in-depth studies of the philosophy, political and social environment, and developmental realities that are the foundation of these approaches; others are handy resources for engaged learning, songs, games, greetings, and the like; and some are practical guides for day-by-day implementation.

Children's Book Selection

These children's books complement and support components of the Responsive Classroom and Developmental Designs for Middle School approaches, including Hopes and Dreams, social skill-building, and discipline. Download Origins’ Childrens Book Selection for implementing C.A.R.E.S. and Hopes and Dreams.
