Rosenberg, Gigi

Project #1: Stories into Books
Students create character, setting and plot, and sew their short stories into a unique, illustrated, handmade book.

Project #2: He Said/She Said
Words come to life as students explore the art of monologue and dialogue, and learn how to invent characters and scenes with words, movement and voice.


About Gigi:

Gigi Rosenberg is an essayist, monologist and visual artist.  She loves teaching writing in tandem with bookmaking because making books captivates different kinds of learners: the artists engage by designing the cover, the doodlers engage by illustrating and the kinesthetic learners engage by actually sewing, with their own hands, the book that will contain their story.

She has taught at Saturday Academy, The Haven Project and the NW Writing Institute.  Her articles have been published in The Oregonian, Jewish Review, Kids Vermont and Cycle California! Magazine.  Her radio commentary “The Hanukkah Bush” was featured on Oregon Public Broadcasting and she has performed her dramatic monologues in Portland and Seattle.  For more information, visit www.gigirosenberg.com <http://www.gigirosenberg.com>
