Your School Can Blog with Ratty!
  ratblog
   
I began this blog as a lark, a fun way to connect with local kids whose school I was about to visit. But the staff and I quickly discovered that blogging with Ratty, a funny and opinionated character from my book Emmy & the Incredible Shrinking Rat, strongly engaged reluctant readers. It gave their writing and computer skills a workout, too.

Here’s the pilot school’s website article on their ratblog experience.

Here's a link to a local newspaper's article as well.

And here’s the link to the blog itself.

If you would like your class or school to blog with Ratty, please directly to arrange a block of time when she will focus on your class or school. Plan to read aloud Emmy & the Incredible Shrinking Rat in the classroom, and begin blogging once you are several chapters into the story.

All comments are moderated for the children’s safety.
