Happy Valentine’s Day!
Teachers, I’ve been somewhat stuck in the “contact with all students over multiple sessions” structure for my virtual visits, because that’s the structure of most of my in-person visits. But I’ve been loving single-session visits for a while (I’ve been doing a lot of “virtual field trips” with streamablelearning.com). A single-session author visit makes a terrific single-grade or single-classroom enrichment activity. It can be treated as a virtual field trip or a reward or a curricular enhancement. And it’s perfect for National Poetry Month!
So, I’ve decided to try to spread the word and see if more schools are interested. I’m offering a huge discount on poetry single sessions for this spring. I have four sessions to choose from:
- Playing with Poems
- Let’s Write a Poem
- The Poetry Life
- Let’s Drop Some Poems
The sessions are $125-$150, which is up to 50% off a usual single session rate. I would absolutely adore meeting your young poets and encouraging them!
Just go to my Author Visits page and click where it says ***SPRING 2024 Special Single Poetry Sessions!*** That will give you all the details. Hope to meet your students this spring!
[My Classroom Connections posts share a way to connect one of my books or poems to a classroom topic–often something timely that you might be covering in the next month or so. Please share this post if you have educator friends who might be interested–thanks!]
