Honored To Be A ClickView Champion!

 

This week I was so honored to be recognized as a ClickView Champion!  

A great librarian becomes the heart of the school: a leader, a connector, and a champion for all students. We listen to kids, amplify student voice, and empower them. That's the true power of the library.

You've Been Book'd With Books For National Library Week & School Library Month!

To celebrate National Library Week and School Library Month, I brought together 33 special books about libraries and reading.

Have fun celebrating your library and all you do as librarians, friends. 

Learning About Hatching Chicks With MergeEDU, PebbleGo, CI eBooks, and More!

 

Every year our first graders hatch eggs in their classroom.  

I put together a choice board for them all about hatching chicks and chickens.  There is a PebbleGo article, Capstone Interactive and EPIC eBooks, and a few other videos and games.  

You can make a copy of this choice board here. 

One of our favorite resources is the Object Viewer in Merge EDU. 

The Development of a Chicken illustrates the entire process, and our first graders explore it using iPads and Merge Cubes within this awesome augmented reality learning environment.

Merge EDU allows students to hold, touch, and interact with this 3D content while learning even more about the what is happening within the eggs that are about to hatch in their classroom.
