On January 28, 2019 I had the pleasure of conducting a full-day author visit at Tyler Elementary School. I read Playground Heroes<\/a><\/em><\/strong> to students in grades K-5. It was particularly gratifying to share this book with these students because two of my grandchildren, Tyler and Lila attend school there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I read Playground Heroes<\/em><\/strong> to grade level groups and was introduced by member of the school\u2019s Anti-Bullying Committee. This group of 4th and 5th grade students are committed to addressing bullying and I commend their efforts. It was an honor to have them introduce me to their schoolmates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After reading the book aloud and answering questions, the students worked on coloring sheets, posters and writing\/art worksheets. There are examples of their work below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you Assistant Principals Warnick and Ndenecho for working with me to make this event happen!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
