Joe
and Sandyman on School Visits
In 1991, Joe developed a
teaching guide.
It explains a simple and enjoyable method for writing poems and how to
keep them in rhythm. All kids have an active imagination and
love to express their adventures (both real and imaginary)
in a way that can be understood and enjoyed by others. A four or
six line poem can convey a lot of information, and do it in a way that
is entertaining for the writer and those who read them. Let's
face it, most children will shy away from what they perceive as work
and pursue fun activities. Joe teaches them that writing is
"FUN" and others will share in that "FUN" by
reading their poems.

"Joe
and I tailor the presentations to benefit the student body
attending. We set up our sound system for the music
tapes. We always involve the audience in the program
and leave them eager to read and write their own poems."

Close Encounters
Close
interaction with my young pals is very rewarding. I let
them know that I was an average student, and started writing
later in life. I enjoy telling stories that make everyone
"grin a bit". Writing poems is a "FUN" way to do it, and
if I can... they can too.

Sandyman
Not
only is "Sandyman" my best pal and good company on my
road trips; he is the star attraction for the children. They
become more at ease and receptive to my message. He has
captured many young hearts over the years.
