Visiting Author - Jason Chin




Next week we have the unique opportunity to meet the amazing author and illustrator, Jason Chin! We have read Coral Reefs and have other books in our classroom. Think about what you've learned about his writing and illustrations. If you could ask Jason Chin a question, what would it be? Which of his research topics is most interesting for you? (Gravity, Coral Reefs, Redwoords, the water cycle, Galapagos Islands)

  1. My favorite research topic that he did would be Coral Reefs. The question that I would ask Jason Chin would be. How do you choose a topic to write about or why did you choose these ideas for the books you've already published?

  4. I would ask Jason Chin. How do you come up with your ideas for your books? My favorite research topic is is the Redwoods [ I don`t know how to under line words] . I think that Jason Chin uses water color for his noun fiction books.

  8. My favorite topic that Mr Chin wrote about is Galapagos Island. I would ask him; what book topics he is planning to write about. I learned that instead of using photos he ilistrates his nonfiction books.

  9. I wonder if in the book island they talk about all different kind of animals or are they going to talk about the island it self? A question I would like to ask Jason Chin is if he had ever been to the Galapagos island.

  10. I would ask him if he had a redwood tree in his backyard, because I mean THAT would be really cool! My favorite topic is the Coral Reefs. I as y'all might not know, I love the ocean (and soccer!) But sadly I am just not into the topics he writes. I am just really exited to ask him questions!

  16. My favorite book was Choral Reafs. I loved the pictures,and how he rights the books nonfiction books but there told in a way like a story. I also like at the beginning of the book someone finds the book and starts reading the book. Its also cool how the background forms into what their reading about. I am so exited for him to come!

  17. I love the galapagos. Mostly because it is a volcanic island and some species aren't discoverd yet! His illustrations are amazing because the setting transforms into the books enviorment. This is Niko! Have a goood evening!
