Scenes From Author Visits

Farmersville
Elementary School in the Bethlehem School District went all out for My
Teacher for President - from the Welcome sign on the lawn, to
familiarizing students with Kay's books, to projects done in every
classroom relating to the election and My Teacher for President.
During the assembly, Kay did an activity where students from K-5th grade spelled out the word President while the audience chanted, " P is for President. My teacher would make a great President". "R is for Read. My teacher could teach the whole world how to read"... |

At the end of
the day, the principal, Pamela Hubbard, took Kay on a tour of the building
to see the various projects the children had created around the election
theme. Students posed proudly by their essays on teacher candidates for
President.
