Welcome VAASL Members!

VAASL Conference Schedule

Introducing TWO New Virtual Reading Shows for your students!

Can books really talk? I think so! In April 2020 I started creating a series of magical interactive sessions based on both classic and contemporary bed time stories. Each session includes the following:

a video routine performed in the studio by Steve
a dozen fun activity sheets to download and share
a “how to” video teaching how to perform a magic trick
online resources (games, puzzles, crafts, etc.)
a list of related books students may want to read

The I Love to Read magic show is an interactive show that highlights more than a dozen great books that I love to read. And the best thing: every student gets a front row seat! In this show students will. . .

discover books that inspire their life
they will learn to make a dollar bill float in the air
create a brain teaser to challenge their family and friends
witness several captivating optical illusions
predict the future using their imagination!

Win a FREE Book and ZOOM with Steve!

Steve is happy to partner with award winning illustrator Scott Gustafson. Scott captures the power of fairy tales in his beautiful illustrations. Not only did Steve license Scott’s wonderful “Storyteller” artwork for Amazing Teacher, Steve is also giving a free copy of one of Scott’s books to at least one VAASL member. However, you must put your name in the hat (complete the form below) to earn a chance to win.

Also, you can choose to sign up for a private ZOOM session with Steve. During this 5-minute live video chat you can ask questions, get answers and witness an AMAZING magic trick based on Dr. Seuss book Fox in Socks! This trick is actually one of the interactive routines from the I Love to Read magic show. To participate, simply tell Steve in the form below.
