Students in Kindergarten and First grade got prepared to meet Mr. Swinburne during their library classes with Mrs. Tench. In class they read the book, learned about Mr. Swinburne's life, and thought about whose shoes they would wear when they got older. Students then had the opportunity to dress up in the shoes and clothes of their chosen profession, get their picture taken and draw of picture of themselves. Mrs. Tench then put some of their pictures and drawings into a presentation that was shown during Mr. Swinburne's visit to our school. Mrs. Tench and our students had a lot of fun reading Whose Shoes? A Shoe for Every Job and thinking about whose shoes they would like to wear!
