School Vists

Creation Abomination!

Themes: Creativity, idea generation, resilience, whimsy.

Length: 45-55 minutes, Grades: K-5.

Fees: $250 for one session, $200 for each additional session (maximum of four per day). For Kindergarten classes, two half sessions can be substituted for a full one. Plus a travel fee of $0.50/km outside of Essex County, Ontario.

Through this fun and interactive presentation, students will get a behind the scenes glimpse of a picture book’s journey – from concept all the way through to publication. They will even get to see some of my top-secret failed projects (what I like to refer to as “practice”).

But why not share the fun? Through a raucous call and response game and live drawing, the students and I will create a completely ridiculous monster, and then give it an absolutely outrageous story, reinforcing the idea that all acts of creation are worthwhile, even if the end result is utter nonsense.
