Jason Chin!
Yesterday, we were given the opportunity to listen to Jason Chin, a non-fiction author. We loved his book Coral Reefs and Redwoods! He talked to us about how he collects the research for his books and how he does his illustrations. What did you find most interesting about his presentation? What was your favorite thing he told you?

I liked Jason Chin's presentation . I liked coral reefs the best. I did not know he could draw so well. I also did't know that he travels to the place he studies. I liked when he talked about water lizard.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing he told us about scuba diving was the sea lion blowing bubbles! I thought that was so funny! My favorite book that he wrote was Coral Reefs. I liked it because I liked learning about underwater animals in 2nd grade. The most interesting thing he told us was that Redwoods was published with 1 try! That is so cool!
ReplyDeleteI love the part when he talked about the baby sea lion. It was funny that it took 30+ drafts to write a book. I love meeting Jason chin!

ReplyDeleteI sadly was sick the day Jason Chin presented at school. But I do really enjoy his books like: Island, Redwoods and Coral Reefs. My favorite of those is Island because I love to learn about The Galapagos. Any way how was it? What did he talk about? I am eager to learn!
ReplyDeleteThe most interesting thing was when he was drawing it looked like a REAL picture. My favorite thing Jason Chin said was he went scuba diving with the Coral Reefs. And when he was face to face with a wild animal.

ReplyDeleteI like that he went to Golapagos to study for Island. And he went to Balez to snorcle for oral Reefs. California for Red Woods.
ReplyDeleteI loved that when he gets ideas for books he goes to the place. I also liked when he show us the pictures of the animals. I loved hearing about the seal and him were blowing bubbles together. I also liked him show us how he draws. I really liked him coming to share his thoughts with us.

His books are so good. My favorite is Redwoods Mary agres with me. He is such a good artist! I loved the part when he talked about the sea lion. He was so lucky to have that time

I loved the presentation. I thought it was interesting how he would hold his marker! My favorite one of his books is Redwoods! I thought his drawing was so realistic! I thought it was so cool that he got to play with a little seal, so cute! It was so interesting how big the turtles were! Bye
ReplyDeleteJason Chin's talk was extremely interesting! I didn't know that an illustrator lived by him. It was neat when he got inspiration for a future job by having an illustrator come to his school!
ReplyDeleteIt was so cool that he got to blow bubbles and dive with a Galapagos sea lion. The turtle drawing looked so lifelike I almost expected it to start eating grass!
I loved are visiting others presentation. I like what he said about R_e_d W_o_o_d_s.

I did not now that he act people cushion. It was cool to see a writer and a other at school. And I did not now that he stared drawing in 3er.
ReplyDeleteJason Chin was so cool. He found his information in a fun way. He got to travel to the places he was writing about. That was so cool. Like when he rote his book about the Galapagos he said he got to go ther and see all of this cool stuff. My favorite book he rote was the book about the Red Woods. That was so cool how the scientist use a bow and arrow to get up the tree. The books I ordered were Water is Water, Gravity and Red Woods. All of Jason Chins books were great. I can not wait to see who are next visiting author.
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow:)

ReplyDeleteMy Uncle is a author and that is how he finds his information
DeleteIliache ho he traveled to islands and landmarks. He holds the pen funny. That turtle he showed us was huge.
ReplyDeleteThe beginning was I like how it was a typo.
ReplyDeleteI liked Jason Chin's stories that he told. I also liked his picture of a Galapagos turtle. He is a very good author and illustrator. I liked his presentation. See you tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI thought that it most interesting when he told us he went under water to find information about the book Coral Reefs. I also thought it was interesting that there was a rule that you couldn't touch any animals on Galapagos. I wonder if a bird lands on your shoulder and you are really still if you get kicked out since it says no touching animals?
ReplyDeleteI found it interesting that he travels to places far away to get information for his books. I found it also interesting that he painted pictures of what he saw that was interesting. One of the favorite things he told us was when he went diving and the seal blew bubbles at him and he blew them back.
ReplyDeleteSame here
DeleteI found it interesting that turtles can be as tall as a human on hind legs. I think Jason Chin is a great illustrator as well as a author. I hope he can make more "chain" books(Books that are chained together by characters).
