School Visit: Carterville, Illinois
Hi folks! I just got back to St. Louis from Carterville, IL. I spent all day at Tri-C Elementary talking with some pretty neat kids. I gave two big presentations – one for the older students and one for the younger ones, and then met with smaller groups for the rest of the day to answer questions. The students colored some awesome posters welcoming me to their school. This evening I got to speak with some parents as well. After my talk, we had punch and cookies and many of the students’ own books that they made were on display for the parents to see. It’s fabulous to see so many parents supporting their kids’ love of reading and writing! Thank you Tri-C Elementary!
