What's Your Story?
Visual Learning Strategies Are So Much Fun as you Discover Your World!
I introduce, demonstrate, and have students practice Visual Learning Strategies. Inspired by the three question visual thinking strategies protocol, I will show that this discussion-based teaching and learning strategy not only includes all four domains of language learning, but is an effective tool across the curriculum.
During the VLS workshop I introduce my nonfiction illustrated books, exploring global cultures through the lens of human commonalities — walls, immigrant stories, traditions for welcoming babies, and the daily life of children .
I will present up to four one hour workshops per day. Workshops are limited to 30 students or one class.
School fees are negotiable:
Within Maine
within 60 miles of Waterville— $800/day
more than 60 miles from Waterville — $800/day plus travel and lodging
New England
outside of Maine — $1,000/day plus travel and lodging
Beyond New England
$1,000/day plus travel and lodging

Right before my son, Kyle, took this picture he asked me what it was like to meet one of my Talking Walls. I have been sharing the fall of the Berlin Wall story with the readers of Talking Walls since 1992 so was thrilled to stand by a wall memorial and then return home to read this article:
