Events & Workshops help transform learning and assessment in schools.
School Visits
Connect with an author! School visits (in person or virtual) are a fantastic way to extend learning for kids and get them excited about stories and writing. School visits can include:
-
Author talks (class or assembly)
-
Read aloud and circle time
-
Writing workshops: learn to write a children’s book!
Check out book pages for classroom and learning resources for each of Chris’ children’s books.
