Author Visits
I am scheduling virtual visits for the 2020-2021 academic year.
Science is Pure Poetry: The ART of Science
In each presentation I share fascinating science and nature stories through the rich imagery, rhyme, rhythm and wordplay of poetry.
Discussion can include: where ideas come from, nature-journaling, many types of research, poetry writing, revision, ecology, and environmental stewardship in a seamless integration of science, language arts, music, and visual arts that engages learners with a wide variety learning styles.
Let's concentrate on one of my science poetry book topics:
-
Amphibian Acrobats: What's amazing about amphibians?
-
Superlative Birds: Be a superlative birder
-
Leaf Litter Critters: Let's go on a compost safari
-
Spi-ku (for spring 2021): Why we LOVE spiders
Length: Approximately 45 minutes, including screen share presentation and Q & A.
Best for grades 2-6.
