When Authors Inspire Student Writing

Author visits are a great way to encourage students to read and write. Fortunately, our school is a champion at planning author visits for our middle schools students. We are eagerly awaiting Book Week from January 23rd to the 27th at Lake Highland Preparatory School. We have Jarrett J. Krosoczka visiting our middle school students, and he’s bringing books! My 7th grade students worked in small groups to create short graphic stories using Book Creator. We are sharing the digital books with Jarrett and the rest of the world on this blog. We hope you enjoy reading our stories and don’t forget to leave us feedback.
