"We were honored to have Rosie Pova visit our school for an author's visit. The first graders were captured from the first minute of the presentation by holding their attention with props, interesting storylines, audience participation, and fun activities... Her heartwarming tale of motherly love, If I Weren't With You, generated higher-level thinking skills of what it would be like to be separated from your mother. It showed the strong bond between Mother Bear and Baby Bear. I would highly recommend Rosie Pova for an author's visit your students will love." -Mrs. Kent, Blanton Elementary, Carrollton

What Mitchell Elementary School Educators Had to Say about Rosie's Full Day Author Visit:
“She was energetic and so fun!” “I would definitely recommend Rosie J. Pova for an upcoming author visit. She is super friendly and engaging. The students responded well to her and were eager to ask and answer questions. Even our younger students were attentive and enjoyed learning from Ms. Pova.” "Rosie has a sweet and inviting voice. Her presentations are kid friendly while still giving plenty of information for the kids to learn about. The slideshow was very helpful for the kids to visualize themselves as authors and illustrators. Rosie engaged students appropriately by asking questions and having students respond with body movements, a quick and easy game with the whole group, and allowing a few questions at the end." "Great job, Rosie! The kids loved your interesting presentation." "She was personable and engaging with the students. The younger grades loved the silly dance." |
