Demystifying School Visits from Start to Finish
Jul 03, 2024
Online event
Ready to visit schools and share your book with young readers? Shannon will walk you through the ins and outs of setting up school visits: how to book visits, how much to charge, keeping kids engaged, and ideas for what you can talk about during your presentation. As a 25-year elementary teacher, Shannon knows what expectations schools have for convocations. As an author who has presented over 300 visits, she has lots of do's and don'ts to share too!
