BEE an Expert!
Here are some favorites:
Britannica Online (available in Spanish too!)
Find It VA: Kids Infobits & National Geographic Kids.
This Google Doc of resources and passwords may come in handy as well!
BEE Tech Savvy!
You will still receive the same ticket alerts, but will hopefully save time submitting the ticket. If you don't already have an email signature with your school information, be sure to include the info in your email.
Are you curious how to make the sticky note image to the left? Check out SuperStickies.
BEE Adventurous!
Wondering what apps we have available on the iPad sets? Check out this Google Doc about resources on the Innovation Lounge iPads - other collections may differ slightly.
Have you heard of Aurasma? This augmented reality app allows you to layer a personal video on top of "trigger image" to create an "Aura!" Totally confused? Ask me for a demo or check out the below TED Talk for an inspiring introduction!
BEE a Reader!
BEE a Library Visitor!
Some weekend reading books you will find:
- Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn - you know you've been wanting to read this one!
- Another Day by David Leviathan - YA series, this is book #2 (book #1 is Every Day)
- Zero Day by David Baldacci - military + crime (I haven't read it, but you should!)
- The Raft - a "survivalist" YA title that I read and "borrowed" from my daughter to share with you!
Note: Sometimes as a librarian I receive ARCs (advanced reader copies), so these may be included on the shelf but aren't in final print form.
BEE Collaborative!
