Products This resourceful and popular text, authored by Carol, has been available for ten years and still continues its usefulness. Carol uses SCAMPER Strategies as a basis for educators' workshops promoting literacy and story telling in particular. Carol's workshops relate directly to most states' language arts and fine arts curricula. Although this book is now "out-of-print" the copyright reverts to Carol Esterreicher. She generously shares portions of her book in a variety of workshops varying from 1 to 3 hours in length. Some copies are still available at Amazon.com while they last! Carol has provided educator workshops in the Granite School District and the Jordan School District. She taught a most enjoyable and memorable Spoonerism workshop to Sunrise Elementary 5th graders--at their teacher's request on the last day of school! Students created new versions of standard fairy tales incorporating these inventive speech patterns! A similar workshop on Word Play Strategies will be presented at the Community Writing Center on Sunday, June 29, 2008 during the Utah Arts Festival in Salt Lake City, Utah.
