Too Many Feathers - Educational Programs

Several educational programs are available for elementary middle and high school students.
I describe the processes and show examples of what is involved in writing and illustrating a picture book. This includes: An idea, the step-by-step development of the manuscript, preliminary sketches, storyboards, and the printing of the book. I end with a question and answer session.

Example of a Pre-K through 2nd grade presentation
A puppet of the main character greets the students. I read the story from a large screen or Smartboard. The students and I both read the story together. Description of the writing and illustrating process is discussed, followed by a question and answer session. A closure experienced art project is completed at that time or brought back to the classroom.
