AUTHOR TALKS with Nikki Rogers
Author / Illustrator / Teacher / Speaker
I love to visit schools and kindergartens to share my story and inspire children to be the best they can be.
SCHOOL VISITS
Are you a Kindergarten or Primary School Teacher?
If you are a school or kindergarten on the Gold Coast, Brisbane, or Toowoomba area I would be delighted to visit your school.
My author talks and story time sessions are best suited for ages 4-years-old up to grade 6.
For kindergarten and prep, I enjoy incorporating puppetry and music to keep the young ones engaged.
For grades 1-3, a 30-45 minute author presentation can include a story, discussion about writing a book, samples of first draft illustrations, question and answer time, and some drawing fun or craft together. This style presentation is best suited to single class sizes.
For grades 4-6 I can present a 45 min -1 hour author presentation. This can be single class sizes or as an assembly up to 200 students.
If you are further afield I would love to meet your class on Zoom!
