PRESENTATIONS TOPICS

The Power of Words – Grades K-12

In this fun, interactive program, Engle uses her novel Clifton Chase & the Arrow of Light to demonstrate the correlation between world building and people building, because words have power. Students will leave with a clear understanding of the types of bullying and how they can use fiction to find solutions to their problems. A positive focused anti-bullying message.

Thinking Like A Writer – Grades 4-12

In this presentation, attendees will take a journey through the writing and publication journey to include the elements of writing such as finding ideas, outlining, researching, and editing.

ConSERVEation through Imagination – Grades 4-12

A STEAM based program, Engle uses her novel Dreadlands: Wolf Moon to discuss conservation, motivate students to think differently, and provides insight to wolf population and life systems.

 Family Night – Grades K-6

After an introductory presentation about the process of writing her novel, Engle encourages families to interact in a fun game of win-lose-or-draw with book titles to demonstrate how pictures and words correlate. Reading and book signing to follow. (60-120 minutes)

Bring Jaimie to Your School for An Author Visit

Don’t take my word for it…

“Jamie Engle is a local author. We just had Jaime at our school and she put on her “Win Lose or Draw with Words” program for our 3^rd-6^th grade students. They loved her and didn’t want to stop. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for an author visit.” –Lee Alonso, Media Specialist, Roosevelt Elementary School

“Jaimie is willing to come out to your class and tell her story of how Clifton developed into a story and the tenacity it took to get the book published. She can bring books which she will also autograph when students purchase them. While visiting at Quest Elementary School, Jaimie read aloud from the book along with my students. Everyone took a character parts (like Reader’s Theatre) which thoroughly engaged my gifted students who begged us to “just read one more chapter together.” –Susan Reiter, Resource Teacher, Quest Elementary

“Very professional, engaging and laid back!  The perfect trifecta!  Students loved meeting you and learning about your craft!  Our middle-schoolers were truly inspired!” –Michele Hipolito, Media Specialist, Ocoee Middle School

“Jaimie Engle is my favorite classroom visitor. She establishes rapport quickly and easily with students from 4th through 6th grade and creates activities that educate about the writing process. The kids write with joy and enthusiasm under her tutelage.” –Kitt Kane, Gifted Teacher, Suntree Elementary

“Palm Bay Elementary School enjoyed a family night with author Jaimie Engle on February 19^th. Jaimie has a natural way of drawing students and families into her love of writing. She demonstrated how words “build” others up. We enjoyed her time with us and expect to see her back to provide some writing workshops in the future. ” –Terri Rollins, Literacy Coach, Palm Bay Elementary

“Jaimie’s presence in our Young Writer’s Camps has supported our mission as an organization – to celebrate every student’s unique voice and empower them to be a positive influence in their community. We appreciate you Jaimie! Thanks!” —Michelle Riddle, Youth Director, Page 15 Non-Profit

“Thank you very much for the writing workshops this week in the Melbourne Writing Center of Eastern Florida State College. I have heard nothing but positive comments all week about your writing seminars. Your positive demeanor and conversational presentation style allow the audience to be set at ease, which further allows participants to absorb your wealth of knowledge shared during these sessions. People I talked to felt a connection to you, which prompted their willingness to share their own ideas and ask a range of questions.” —Sharon Cronk-Raby, Writing Center Director, Eastern Florida State College
