 The Zing! of Creating
In her newest book, Pat Mora directs her writing to teachers, librarians and other educators. This rich, vital idea-book, presented as letters to teachers, is about the zing of creating. In her introduction, Pat writes, "In these letters to you, I want to share some stories and strategies and to propose seven practices I've learned that can assist us to develop our personal creativity and professional inventiveness. The letter about each practice is followed by a companion letter on nurturing the same habit in our students, suggestions for imaginative teaching."
ZING! Seven Creativity Practices for Educators and Students is available now. Published by Corwin (9781412978392) $23.95 PAP
"In a series of letters to teachers written with her signature poetic grace, Pat Mora gently reminds us of the potential in ourselves and our students while expanding our understanding of the writing process through metaphoric descriptions of other common creative acts. Zing! is a book to be savored, shared, and returned to for inspiration."- Lee Galda, Professor, University of Minnesota |
