Top Secret Graphics / Book List |
|
Bookmarks (Front & Back)I bring one of these bookmarks for each student at your school:
PostersI send you three of these 18" x 24" posters to post around the school to publicize your program. (Let me know if you would like more than three.) They really help build excitement about the "big day." The white bar is an area for you to write the date, time, and/or location of your programs, or any other information you'd like to pass on.
Printable GraphicThis is similar to the poster, but it doesn't have the white bar.
If you're printing reading certificates or other forms and you can use
this as a starting point, you're welcome to use it.
Press Release"Secret Agent Curt Nelson, code named 'The Motivator,' has been called The Man With 1,000 Faces. He's been spotted teaching middle school and high school science, performing as a tuxedo-clad magician, writing children’s books and presenting educational assemblies dressed as a safari guide or train engineer. Curt is believed to reside in Oregon and reportedly travels the Northwest with great impunity, even performing publicly before thousands of children each year. He has recently been seen traveling with a magic bunny rabbit (a.k.a. Leanne) and a puppet rat named Roosevelt. Working as a team, they create an environment of merriment and laughter, then, when their audience least expects it, they slip in motivational and educational messages. The children clap and cheer while the adults in the audience, laughing too hard from the humorous presentation, are helpless to stop them. Reliable witnesses have called their program "the best I have seen," "a stellar performance," and given it their "highest recommendation." For more information (what little is know about them), visit www.slightlyillusional.com, or come to your location at time on your date to see Curt, Leanne and Roosevelt perform their 'Top Secret' assembly." Book List

Note: I remind students during the program that they can check out a book similar to the ones listed below. Topics that I discuss in this program include geography concepts (cartography, continents, peninsulas, islands and the countries of Italy, Australia, and Mexico), secret codes and invisible ink, rabbits, dogs, magic tricks, gardening, cooking, spy stories and drawing. I may not get through all those subjects, but I’ll try.
