(Adjoa) does have the "knack" that allows her to speak to very young children. The art project that the children were allowed to do was quite appropriate to the young grades.

I liked the way it gave the children an overview of how books are made. Having a hands-on experience was a good chance for children to do art.

She not only tapped our students' creative energy, but she also knew how to manage 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students. She tailored her presentation to the varying attention spans and abilities.

The most effective and exciting portion of her presentation was done in the individual classrooms. Each student was given the opportunity to use her special technique to develop an illustration of their own.

I know much more about the intricacies of illustration and will be able to share my new "sight" ability to notice detail, with my students.
