Transforming the media center @ Brooks Global
To motivate fifth graders to keep reading, Colleen Pinyan collaborated with her fifth grade team to offer an unusual incentive: Dancing in the Library. As you can tell by the video , the boys loved it. Plus, I earned some culture credibility by even knowing about the song!!!
Bonus: got the idea from the AAM Conference in June.
