Today, Dallas ISD Media and Literacy Specialists came together to learn, collaborate, and prepare for another incredible school year. As the heart of the school, our Dallas ISD librarians are ready to strengthen curriculum connections, foster literacy, inspire innovation, and inspire every Dallas ISD student to explore, discover, and grow.

Hispanic Heritage Month may have ended yesterday, but the celebration of culture, traditions, and heritage continues year-round! As we close out this special month, we’re proud to highlight members of our Library Media Services and OTI teams who shared a glimpse into their heritage and meaningful family traditions. Celebrating the people, stories, and traditions that make our teams so special!

This is a great example of bringing literacy and STEM learning together! The students at Margaret B. Henderson are exploring coding with Bee-Bots while bringing Let’s Be Bees to life.

Layering reading with experiences makes learning meaningful. Let's Be Bees is a fun read, but even more fun after learning to use BeeBots for coding and really BE BEES!

A lonely, unpredictable bull elephant is calmed and engaged while hearing Paul play piano music. Example of music calming the savage beast. Based on actual events in Thailand. Lovely & lush illustrations, soft watercolor feeling. @SourcebooksKids @DISD_Libraries #bookaday

Learning took flight in the library! Students explored birds, feathers, habitats, and wingspans through hands-on learning with Texas Wildlife. What a way to turn curiosity into discovery!

Our students' learning took flight during the Birds of a Feather presentation by @texaswildlife. 🪶 They explored habitats, feathers, researched birds, and even measured wingspans. What a soaring adventure! 🦅 @DISD_Libraries @mr_marketAP @bafeederpattern
