Week 5 - 6:
Storylines Festival is on this week for both the year 5/6 and 7/8 extension classes. It promises to be another inspiring event with talks from four outstanding authors. Before we leave for this trip it's time to find out about these authors.
Each year as part of the Storylines Festival, the Story Tour brings New Zealand writers and illustrators into schools and early childhood centres. This is an unique opportunity for students to meet their literary heroes and to get an insight from a writer or illustrators perspective. Now's your chance for your students to get answers to some of those burning questions: Where do their ideas come from? What was the inspiration? How did they know they wanted to become a writer or illustrator? How did they make their dream a reality?
Authors: Juliette Mclver, Cath Mayo, Jill MacGregor, Paula Green.
Task 1:
Complete a blogpost that includes the following about the four authors:
Where are they based?
What types of books do they write?
What other interesting things can we find out about them?
What 3 questions would you like to ask these authors?
Which author(s) are you most looking forward to hearing from this Thursday?
Task 2:
Radio show host: Go here for tips on interviewing:
Using information gathered about above authors: draw up a script for DJ and 3-4 others where you will interview one another about the four authors. This is also a advertisement for the upcoming storyline festival. Make it sound exciting - entice people to attend. Once you are ready collect the microphone and record onto garageband.
