Ken Bradbury




The fifth grade students were excited to spend part of their morning April 14 with author, Ken Bradbury. He came to speak with the students about how to make writing interesting and how to come up with ideas. The students will be competing in a writing contest this week among the entire fifth grade. One of the most important concepts they learned was to write about what you know, not things you have to make up. Mr. Bradbury was excellent with them and everyone enjoyed donuts and orange juice. The majority of the students also got his autograph!
