I help your Kids Love Reading & Writing!
My approach is fun for kids and painless for parents!
Welcome, Friends!
For over 30 years, I’ve helped families discover reading and writing joy.
If you dream of confident kids who read a lot and write well, you’ve come to the right place.
My approach is always positive and working with me feels like a big hug!
Always writing,
Here’s How I help
My Signature Course!
It’s the best way to inspire writing love for families with third - fifth grade students attending PVPUSD. (For parents and 3rd-5th grade students.)
Pack your pencils!
Just like my signature course, but more intimate (limited to twenty PVPUSD families) and includes two one-on-one writing conferences for each student. (For parents and 3rd-5th grade students.)
For book lovers who can’t commit!
The Once-in-a-While Book Club is for book lovers who can’t commit to monthly meetings (I crack myself up). It’s an afternoon of bookish conversation that happens around my dining room table once in a while. (For adults.)
Mini retreat. Massive delight.
I can’t wait to gather eight women around my dining room table for a few hours of writing and art! No writing experience required! We celebrate all that is good about your bold and beautiful words. (For women.)
Pie + Haiku = Yum!
I hope you’ll join me for the second annual Poetry Pie Writing Challenge hosted here at Lorrie Tom Writes. April is National Poetry Month and we’re celebrating by writing ten haiku from April 21st to 30th.
“Family of Writers pairs perfectly with the core principles of Writing Workshop. There’s nothing more powerful than kids who do Writing Workshop by day and Family of Writers by night!”
“Lorrie somehow waves her magic writing wand and empowers each and every one of her students. Not only do her students grow remarkably as writers, but they can’t wait to write! That in and of itself is a remarkable feat!”
