by Joanne Boc:   Having had the opportunity to see Mr. Cobb’s performance at Belvidere’s Third Street School recently, I would describe his show as exciting, interesting, entertaining, captivating, inspiring and fun. These are words that came to mind while watching Mr. Cobb’s 60 minute performance for the school’s kindergarten through third graders.

 What is the main idea of my educational assembly?



My presentations teach audiences about writing, illustrating and creative thinking. I use creative arts such as music, sing-a-longs, storytelling, interactive exercises, readers’ theatre and graphic images to create a visually stimulating and entertaining show. I use my books in this presentation to touch on points like the importance of conflict within a story, developing detail with words and to show the students how the illustrator develops the story -- from character development, story boards, thumbnails, rough pencils, right down to the finished illustrations. A Power Point projector is used to display all 196 images throughout the assembly. 

Pirates are coming!  2009    Interactive book projects available as a workshop.

                                                                Personalized This Pirate Project                        

Personalization will be offered to schools only. The cover text will have your school  (e.g.), "Do Pirates Go To Spurce Run School" and on the inside the students will be able to add personal touches that will make this story special to them.  This will make for a great class project.

    Your personalized project can then be published in a softcover for the students to enjoy.

"Teaching Through Creative Arts" is the best educational show around.
