The 2nd grade reading group began working on PowerPoint presentations based on the research template that they completed a few weeks ago, I love seeing students combining research and technology tools to create a product showcasing their work. Lee Anne manages to incorporate technology and information literacy skills authentically as opposed to teaching skills in isolation,.
Speaking of tech tools, Lee Anne used a MimioPad tablet with a lesson on Scholastic's new ebook line, Storia. MimioPad can turn any screen into an interactive board. The students loved getting to try it out and caught on very quickly.

One observation that occurred to me this week is the importance of good working relationships among library staff members. Lee Anne, Veneal, and Haley operate as a close knit, yet respectful and productive team and I admire the rapport they have with each other. I truly believe it is their teamwork that makes their library a success and a central hub of the school. It has been a pleasure to observe and work with such a great group of women.
