Our 8th grade reading classroom is doing a very cool investigative project in conjunction with reading Skeleton Creek. I think it would be wonderful if you included a place on your website for teachers to submit their lesson plans and ideas for using your books in their classrooms. I know I’d have something to share!
My Seattle friend Ellen Finn has been living in Honduras since 2007 because she fell in love with the Hondurenas and wanted to establish a link between her own American resources and the teachers, students and parents in the impoverished mountain schools around Copan Ruinas, where she lives. You can see some of her successes at her website shown above. But books in Spanish have been terribly difficult to come by. Most of the schools have very few or no books. The teachers manage with unimaginably few supplies of any kind. I’m wondering if you might help. Are you still involved in providing books to Central American children? Many thanks in advance.
