ASK (“Authors Specialist and Knowledge”) is an organized process that provides students with the opportunity to interview an author or a subject specialist in the topic they are reading about in a novel. The program uses excellent literature, journal writing and interviewing to promote reading for understanding.
A Loonie for Luck is the story of Trent Evans, the Edmonton Oilers icemaker, and how he became part of a wonderful fable at the 2002 Winter Olympics held in Salt Lake City, Utah.
