Author, Author Field Trip Trailhead Teacher's Resources Start Field Trip Author! Author!: A Module on Writing for Children By Cara Bafile The field trip accompanying this module introduces students to the writing process through the eyes of children's book authors. Children usually encounter the steps in the process of writing pre-writing, writing, revising, editing, and publishing at some point in their elementary experience, but they rarely apply that understanding to the work of real authors. The Web provides a unique opportunity for students to learn about how children's authors produce their books through sites created and maintained by these authors, their publishers, or fans. The opportunity to virtually "meet" real authors and find out how they view and engage in their craft offers an additional motivation for students to implement the process in their own work. On the field trip, students will study the steps of process writing. They will visit several children's authors' Web sites and answer questions such as:

I have a little more editing to do, and then I plan to try and get it published. This was an excellent experience."

LEARNING ABOUT THE AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR PAGES Kay E. Vandergrift Special Interest Page Children's Literature Page Young Adult Literature Page Author Biographies Page ... Videos Many readers are curious about the creators of the books they enjoy. The more than six hundred links to author/illustrator sites included here will help to satisfy that curiosity. Young people especially want to know about their favorite authors/illustrators because they often feel that an author/illustrator is speaking directly and personally to them through the work. Learning about authors/illustrators can also help young people see possible connections between a creator's life and the works created and encourage them to consider different techniques and approaches to the compositional act. Included in the sites below are children's and young adult authors and illustrators as well as many adult authors commonly read by young adults. Learning About Biography It is important to consider some of the latest critical and scholarly work about biography and autobiography in order to recognize and appreciate developments in these genres for both adults and young people.

135. City Journal Winter 2000 | Why The Boy Scouts Work By Heather Mac Donald Heather Mac Donald, writing for City Journal, provides a detailed history of innercity scouting and then argues that the position of activists trying to change the BSA is that furthering the gay-rights crusade takes precedence over helping inner-city children. http://www.city-journal.org/html/10_1_why_the_boy.html

Try attending a Boy Scout meeting. You will find a parallel universe to today's vulgar, sexualized youth culture, filled with gestures of sometimes unbelievable delicacy and a code of conduct as anachronistic as sixteenth-century courtiership. Take Harlem's Troop 759. Six boys, from tall to small, sit expectantly around a card table in the basement of a red brick church on Morningside Avenue. The gangly senior patrol leader, Osmond Ollennu, a tenth-grade son of Ghanaians, calls the troop to opening ceremonies ("C'mon, men, form a straight line!"), and Osmond's little brother leads it in the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by four full-throated repetitions of the scout motto ("Be Prepared!") and one scout slogan ("Do a Good Turn Daily"). Then Osmond, who is the troop's second-in-command, announces inspection. While the boys stand quietly in line, he gently reties a neckerchief here, straightens a collar there, occasionally whispering a reminder in a boy's ear. The troop's leader, a dignified 18-year-old named Henry Lawson, inspects Ollennu in turn.
