Common Belief #4 in Action
Nolen's Gift to "Ma"(Great Grandmother) for her 82nd BDay was to share a story with her from our library. He chose the gift AND the story!
Reading is the core of personal and academic competency.
In the school library, learners engage with relevant information resources and digital learning opportunities in a culture of reading. School librarians initiate and elevate motivational reading initiatives by using story and personal narrative to engage learners. School librarians curate current digital and print materials and technology to provide access to high-quality reading materials that encourage learners, educators, and families to become lifelong learners and readers.
First Friday - March Recorded Sessions
I encourage EVERYONE to make the time to view at least one of these sessions! (If I could mandate it I would). :) Both presenters did an excellent job sharing the new AASL National Library Standards.
