Time Out For Teachers!
I'm offering FREE 20-30 minute Skype visits (for PreK-12) for the entire 2013-2014 school year (as my schedule permits) as well as otherFREE resources for teachers, libraries and classrooms!
Here's how it works:
- E-mail me to schedule a day and time for your Skype visit. We can also connect on video Google Chat or video Facebook Chat.
- Download my free Time Out For Teachers Visit Information including: Ideas for the Visit, Pre-Visit Fun, Easy Book Order and Autograph Information, Visit Confirmation, Bandwidth Reservation Memo, and a Poster for your Classroom.
- Read through the information and e-mail me with questions. Then e-mail me your completed Visit Confirmation with your selected visit idea OR propose a visit idea of your own.
- Send home Parent Letter 1 or Parent Letter 2 (depending on what you decide about book orders) to let families know what's up. AND if you decide to take advantage of my bomb-diggity, book ordering opportunity, order your books 4-6 weeks in advance of our visit date.
- Then, fill out the included autograph tally sheet and e-mail it to me. I'll send you FREE personalized, autographed stickers for every book ordered.
- Hang up the posters. Read the books. Get excited. It's visit time!
Download my free Activity/Curriculum Guides (linked to learning standards) and bring my books to life in your classroom. Then fill out the autograph tally and I'll send your school autograph stickers for kids who buy my books.

"Thank you sooooooooooooo much for giving our students such an amazing look into one of your books and connecting it to what they are learning in the classroom! You were all the talk in the hallways after the programs! It was so wonderful to see our students so excited about a book! I just can't thank you enough!!"
