George Shannon visits Bennett

George Shannon spent today talking with our Kindergarten, First, Second and Third Graders. He shared the idea of "Maybe, maybe" where stories unfold by thinking of all the possibilities. You can say to yourself, "Maybe _________ happens, so ____________ happens next. Or  ___________ could happen." He shared a fabulous story with 2 classes about what would happen if you were to crack open a peanut and find three monkeys inside it.

He shared his writer's journals, his editing process, and many, many ideas. Ask your child about his visit. Come by the library and check out one of his books.
