Introduction | I'm a teacher who loves to write and teach writing. Two of my books that have been published are PATH TO MY AFRICAN EYES (YA) and UNDER THE AFRICAN SUN (middle grade) In my books I combine my South African childhood experiences with my American adulthood. In the classroom I have been able to share my knowledge of the craft of writing. My third and fourth graders develop into zealous writers, producing sophisticated pieces that is so satisfying to me! In this blog I want to share my daily writing lessons that have proven successful year after year. |
