Author Visits Huth, Kaegebein - April 2011
See Kaegebein Students.See Huth Road Students.
Kaegebein and Huth Road Elementary schools had the privilege of hosting award winning author, Cynthia DeFelice on April 4th and 5th. DeFelice is the author of over 25 books for young readers, including novels and picture books. In preparation for her visit, students learned about her life and were exposed to her books, in the library and in the classroom.
During her visit, she spoke to the students about where ideas come from and how those ideas can be turned into stories. All of the students experienced first hand a writer's gift and gained a greater understanding of the writing process. DeFelice shared how she became an author and described her goal of writing books that she would have loved to read as a child. A group of students at each school had the opportunity to attend a special author luncheon in the library with Cynthia DeFelice.
This program was a joint venture between the schools' PTAs and the Grand Island Central School District. Author visits focus on literacy by putting reading and writing in the spotlight. Students were made aware of their own creative potential as authors and came away from DeFelice's visit excited to immerse themselves in new literary experiences.
