Hi Matt! I am teaching Children's Lit for the first time in the fall. When I mentioned this during my Summer A class, several students mentioned how much they enjoyed this class when you taught it. Based on the students' comments, I'm hoping you will send me your syllabus. Also, any suggestions on how you made the class engaging would be appreciated! I'm teaching 2 new courses this fall so I'm trying to get started with planning now (or soon after I complete most of the assignments for Schneider's class)! Thanks in advance for considering my request. Sincerely, Becky Powell

Hello! I LOVED that class. I got to teach it a few semesters and had a blast. I will add you to the blackboard course for both times I taught it. I have everything I used in there. A lot of the students, however, like the way I taught. It was very hands on where students would build things as if they were the kids in an elementary - seventh grade class and build things as if they were a teacher planning for a class. I did very little lecturing, usually about 15 - 20 minutes a session to review necessary information. So glad students enjoyed it! Let me know if it doesn't show up on your blackboard screen. I'll add you to two different sections. Thanks, Matt
