Heard This Today… Part 37

This was too good not to share it with everyone. I have been visiting a school in Middleboro – presenting my Building Stories Workshop to the wonderful fourth graders there. I am fortunate enough to be able to visit each classroom twice and today was the second trip to Mrs. Penney’s class. There, one of the students asked if he could show me something after I was finished with the workshop that day. I told him, “Of course, Bud!”
After we finished the young man presented some work/stories he had been working on about some of his favorite sports stars. He said that he was inspired to do so after my first visit to thier class – after showing everyone how much fun writing can be. I can’t tell you how amazing of a feeling it was to hear someone express their fondness for writing due to what you’ve said to them during class. This is exactly WHY I started Building Stories and why I love the children who are able to take part in it.
