Highlights 2020-2021

Becky Melby,Thank you for the wonderful presentation that you gave to Sara McNeal's English Classes last week Tuesday. Our students gained so much knowledge from your insightful words.How do we get our students to read and write and then write and read some more? As Sara our English teacher, and as the school librarian, we are keenly interested in literacy. We want our students to think of themselves as writers. Real writers. Why? Because writers write, and when we do, we think. To write is to explore worlds, both those within and those that surround us. “Real” writers like you, know that, and when you talked to our students you shared that message. During your time with our students they became a part of a writing community, and that led them to think of themselves as real writers too.We asked our students to write questions. Students asked an array of questions, everything from the expected “How do you get your ideas?” and “How long does it take to write a book?” to the career-oriented “Can you make enough money as a writer?” You answered the questions so well. Even telling students that to develop their character more intensely they should imagine their character sitting in a chair next to them and being interviewed.Thank you for the books that you gave to us. I’m enjoying Yesterday’s Stardust. I urge others to visit your website http://www.beckymelby.com/ to find out more about you and your writing.Thank you for making a connection for our students with the world of reading and writing. We know they were inspired to read and write as a part of their own lives.Char and Sara
