Exploring the Joy of Nonfiction Reading and Writing

Behind the Books: It’s School Visit Season


I do a few school visits each
month, but during April and May is my primetime for reaching out to children
and teachers. This year, I started things off at Clinton Elementary School in
Clinton, MA, where I did presentations about bats (grade 2) and birds (grade
3).

Besides discussing my writing
process and the book-making process, we also did a slew of fun, hands-on
activities to help students understand the amazing anatomy and physiology of
the animals around us. What a great day!


 

Today, I’m heading out to Memorial
School in Medfield, MA, to present to preK-grade 1 students. I’m really looking
forward to it. I learn as much from the students as they learn from me.
