We are very excited to be hosting nonfiction writer, Kelly Milner-Halls at Hedden! She will be at our school all day on Tuesday, December 14th. She writes a wide variety of nonfiction topics from mummies, albino animals, dinosaurs, and Sasquatch, to a recent book that has received much acclaim, Saving the Baghdad Zoo.
Ms. Milner-Halls will be doing assemblies and writing workshops with our different grade levels. Students will find her very engaging, and the idea of writing nonfiction about unusual topics a fresh fun idea!
In the library we've been looking at many of her books during our literacy lessons in anticipation of her arrival!
Below you'll find her website:

Sincerely,
Mr. Wolfe

I am SO excited about being at Hedden to visit the Hedden Hawks on Tuesday! Thanks so much for making me feel so welcome! See you VERY soon!

It was really fun making the dinosaur story today. Here is my story; If I had a dinosaur I would get a pterodactyl. Her name is Terry. She is going to sleep under my bed. I would give her a bath in a swimming pool. I would feed her 2000 steaks. She is over 9 feet tall.

Students are still talking about their excellent experience with author, Kelly Milner Halls!
We have a waiting list in the library for her books; I only wish we had more copies so that everyone could have them at once!
Thank you, for the lasting work and impression you left on our students at Hedden, Kelly!
Mr. Wolfe,
I really enjoyed having her here!!!!
