Show; Don’t Tell is good writers’ advice. It is also the title of my writing workshop for students in grades four and up. Students learn how to appeal to all the senses to bring their writing to life.
Who is the Writer in Your Neighborhood? Pittsburgh is the home (or has been the home) of many wonderful children’s authors and illustrators! This workshop introduces our local authors and illustrators through read-alouds, booklists, and online resources. Since our region is so rich in artistic talent, this workshop can be tailored for all ages, preschool through adult.
