The internet is a remarkable thing- especially in a classroom. Earlier this month my sister-in-law approached me about doing a long-distance interview with a few of her students at Chappell Elementary in Green Bay, Wisconsin. What an opportunity, not for sales or publicity, but to connect with students, talking about my favorite subject- writing!
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thanks to all those wonderful teachers who are thinking outside the box. We never know when our efforts will pay off, how we will impact our students, but it is exciting, interactive lessons that can inspire a love or learning, and in this case a love of writing. Even through the technical difficulties that are always present when using technology, these set of students that I visited with were prepare and polite. You guys made my day. And remember, yall can send me some of those question right here on my website and I will write you back as soon as I can. I would love to share some of your writing as well. If anyone is interested in sharing, we could trade! I look forward to hearing from yall.edit.
