Author Visits
To schedule an author visit for your school or writers' conference, contact me at jskittinger@bellsouth.net.
I speak to students from kindergarten through 6th grade about my books and the writing process and to older students about the publishing process and writing as a career. If you are planning an author visit, be sure to utilize my Teacher Resource Worksheets here.
My presentations for schools include:
- Non-fiction-- Overhead transparencies enhance this talk about avenues and excitement of research, using my books as a basis, for 3rd-6th grades.
- The Magic of Words-- Young students learn the power and magic of words and the basic structure of a story.
- Birds of the Southeast-- A slide presentation for any age.
- Rocks, Minerals and Fossils-- Samples and overhead slides enhance this talk on earth's treasures for 3rd-6th grades.
- Dead Log Alive!-- A hands-on presentation for small groups which allows for discovering some of the many creatures and plants that make use of a tree after it dies. For all ages.
Keep in mind that new talks can be adapted for a school's needs! For more information on How to Plan an Author School Visit, click here. To find other speakers, visit: www.schoolvisit.net.
