Interactive Skype Session with Well-known Children’s Author Ms. Deepa Agarwal

“There’s always room for a story that can transport people to another place.”

J. K. Rowling

We at Oakridge encourage the children in many ways to read and make reading as their habit. Today we had a Skype session with a well-known children’s award-winning author Ms. Deepa Agarwal, with our Grade 2 children in connection with their unit of inquiry on ‘Stories’. In the library, students discussed and inquired about the author Ms. Deepa Agarwal.  They read her books and discussed the way she writes, about her life etc.

During the Skype session with her, children asked questions such as “Do you write books only for kids?”, “What was the first story you wrote?”, “What are the biggest books you made?”, “Who is your favorite writer?”, “How many stories have you written so far?”, “What were the challenges you faced while you were writing?” etc.

Children were happy to know that Ms. Deepa writes Biographies apart from Fiction. Our learners were satisfied with the tips given by the author to become a good writer. It was an interactive learning Skype session.
