Victoria School
I'm amazed at the talent and creativity of the elementary students at Victoria School. I've been working all week with the students, and I have to say I was shocked that so many wanted to write. Yesterday, I had one class write through the recess break. Over half the kids just wanted to stay and finish their plays. Now that's what I call dedication.
One of my favourite moments of the entire week was when one of the students drew me a thank you note. I had given her an old Writers Market book, because she just wanted to know how to send her stuff to publishers. She drew a cartoon of me at a department store with my mom. I was in awe of her talent. I hope she keeps drawing. She's a bright star among many stellar students at Victoria. One more day to go. I can't wait to see what Friday's students create.
