Hello LM_NETTERS,
Folks are gearing up for that return to school.... but you still have
plenty of time to bring yourself up to speed and gather a few of your
classroom colleagues in the process. The best library advocacy is
ACTION ADVOCACY and why not start with a fun, free, at-your-leisure
learning experience? Working through Classroom Learning 2.0 with a
few of your fellow teachers will help you all to gather some cool
ideas for lessons, learn about some 2.0 tools to use, and will
generate fun conversations - all from your own living room couch!
In this process, your colleagues will learn what it is you actually do
and can provide as their teaching partner in the library!
Look over the following info, gather your pals and spend a little bit
of time learning how to use the 2.0 tools your kids already know and
love. Happy summer to all.
