Collaborative Planning

            The librarians are planning on stepping up our collaborative work with teachers every year. I hope you are eager to do some team teaching with me!  I’d like for everyone to have a personal goal to plan on using the library with your students at least once a year, if not once a semester.

Remember that there a many ways to use the library:

·        bring students for research

·        Internet research projects (which might involve scheduling laptops)

·        checking out books and magazines for recreational reading or research

·        get a cart of resources to use in your room for an assignment

·        skills lessons (like using the databases)

·        schedule me to read to your kids (in library or classroom)

·        author visits

·        booktalks

·        one of your TechFusion projects

Library Classes

            Let me continue to solicit my services as a librarian to you. I can teach many different things to your students if you are interested in having me do that. Here are a few examples:

·        Using the Library Catalog

·        Using the Library Website

·        Researching in the Library (with books and databases)

·        Researching on the Internet (with databases)

·        Power Point

·        Moviemaker or Photostory

·        Publisher Documents

·        Web 2.0 sites

Contact me to get on the calendar at least a couple of days in advance if possible!
