October Meeting

At our last meeting we talked about techniques to engage listeners and included a handout on telling scary stories.

Stop by the kids desk if you would like to pick up the handout, or check this article below.

Are you recording your stories and visits to classrooms on our Data Sheet?

It would be so helpful if you entered your data in the on-line data sheet for our record keeping.

If you need help, drop by the library Monday mornings, Thursdays after 2:30 or Fridays after 1 and I can help you.

Don’t forget to enter the number of students in your classes by moving the sliding bar to the end of the row.

Remember to add to the other Venues if you tell outside of your classrooms.

It will really help with our data collection for the end of the year!
