Program Description
Becoming the Author of your own life-
Grades 3-6 or 6-8 60-75 minutes
By recounting his own struggles growing up, author Ben Mikaelsen empowers students to realize their own potential. Ben’s goal reaches beyond motivating students to read and write. He wants kids to discover they are the authors of their own lives. Ben talks directly to the students about their lives. This includes a strong discussion on respect and bullying. He finishes this talk with a slide show offering a humorous look into a day in the life of an author. If students have not had the opportunity to hear Ben speak before, this presentation is a must!
