Choose Your Own Adventure! (Rising 1st-4th Graders)

CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE! (Rising 1st-4th Graders)

Get ready for an adventure! In this workshop, young writers will explore exciting new books and classic tales as inspiration for their own creative stories. Writers will take these compelling narratives and remix them into something entirely their own, experimenting with a range of materials, modalities, and visual storytelling techniques - the possibilities are endless!

Instructor: Sarah Ferraro is a Kindergarten teacher at Eagle Elementary, part of Bethlehem Central Schools. She loves introducing students to the world through literature and believes that student voices are the classroom’s most valuable resource. She is dedicated to creating a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child feels seen, heard, and inspired to learn.

Instructor: Laura Wladarczyk is an elementary school librarian in the East Greenbush Central School District.  She has been writing for most of her life and loves supporting her students as they become authors and illustrators.   She loves reading with her students and helping them find books that will inspire them.

This workshop will run July 13-17 9am-12pm, at the University at Albany. Space is limited!
