Description
Books by Southeastern authors can be incorporated into your classroom in multiple ways--an exploration of resources, including those available from SCBWI, and formats that make school visits possible in an era of shrinking library funding. This session will discuss grant writing and soliciting donor support, a Skype visit with an author who offers this as an alternative, and an example of the way book “apps” can be integrated with lesson plans and school visits.
