This summer, I've been busy skyping with libraries, summer camps, and more. It was a surprise that there were so many wanting me to skype during the summer, but I loved it. These photos show one special day with Martin Luther King Family Outreach Center in Spokane, Washington. Each year, the center has a Summer Youth Academy for K-6, where children learn about writing and illustrating. Each class also writes and illustrates a book of their own.
I first open Skype, then my Keynote presentation, and finally Photo Booth on my Mac. Photo Booth allows the children to see myself, as well as the presentation, and I can see them through Skype. My eyes probably look as if they are rolling all over the place...because they are (ha), but it seems to work quite well.
It was a delight being with the children and both Jeani Brickner, Children's Services Director, and Brittini Allen, Program Coordinator, were lovely to work with. Check out their great work at www.mlkspokane.org
