In this Author to Teacher Episode: Conversations with published authors about writing, teaching, and how we can support our students, our host Martha speaks with author, singer song writer, and speech pathologist Dennis Mathew. The two discuss Dennis' journey to authorhood, his desire to help students feel loved and welcome at school, and how he encourages children to use their everyday life as inspiration for writing.
You can find Dennis's books Bello the Cello, My WILD School Day, and How Grizzly Found Gratitude on his website and Amazon.
If you're a teacher who teaches writing, or really any subject, this is a helpful, insightful, and important listen filled with interesting, real life anecdotes and useable advice you can apply to your classroom today.
Listen along and learn how we can help our students find their passion and voice as writers.
