This month I met our new ED of education. I am excited to start a partnership with her and other leaders to bring technology at our schools into the 21st century.
Continuing the information literacy classes has been a wonderful learning experience. I am finding that many students have the evaluation skills, but lack the ability to apply them. The unit presents specific sets of yes/no questions that students can ask themselves about any resource to determine its trustworthiness.
I’ve been trying to get regular volunteers into the library for years. One of the self-contained teachers has set up a monthly volunteer project. I have set up a long term book labeling project for students. I introduce students to the concept of organizing books and give them the tools to sort and label our fiction section. So far the students are doing wonderful, and the shelves look so professional!
