I had the pleasure of visiting Berkeley Heights in Martinsburg, WV for two days this week. I had four sessions each day and the kids were awesome!!! Thanks to everyone who made this possible for me. I was sponsored by Berkeley County Title I. My author and good friend visited with them for two days at the beginning of the month with his absolutely fabulous presentation about his writing process, and always ends each presentation with his "famous rap song". You have to see him in action to get the full visual and audio effect. With my follow-up as the illustrator, the kids got a double shot of what writing and illustrating our books are all about. Thanks to all who were involved in making this happen. Here is the link to a PowerPoint presentation that one of the teachers produced. Thanks to her for taking the time to create this. Another shout-out goes to Mrs. Shickles' kindergarten class for the wonderful book I was presented with called, "Drawing" our Attentions to Illustrating! The kids each drew a picture and wrote a sentences like , "I like your book", "I like the picrsrs", "My farvit prt wus you!", and tons more. These kindergarten children were so sweet. I am attaching a photo of one of my presentations.
