Week 3 of E-learning includes learning about the Caldecott Medal. We read The Adventures of Beekle: The Unimaginary Friend by @dansantat and came up with our own imaginary friends. #wceslibrarylady #elearning

After reading, The Wild Robot by @itspeterbrown, students came to the library to program their own wild robots using @cubeletsdigital. #STEM #literacylovers #wceslibrary #librarylady

We are celebrating love and all of the ways we show it to one another with three of my favorite books - Hair Love by Matthew Cherry @MatthewACherry, The Giving Tree by @ShelSilverstein and Love by @mattdelapena. #weekoflove #librarylady #wceslibrary

Books can't keep these monsters away from the library because we LOVE reading! #halloween2019 #wceslibrarylady @MonstersInc_

U1. A3: While exploring https://t.co/DvQUj98MQp, I found an awesome Elementary Digital Citizenship Hotlist (https://t.co/uOd5bMv4n9) with links to resources on digital citizenship. I can't wait to use this resource next year! #reachoutlibs #digitalcitizenship #OER

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

Found this awesome resource in the TIE reads. It shows how to implement project-based learning in the classroom and gives some awesome sample project ideas. Check it out! #AASL #reachoutlibs #projectbasedlearning

This year's reading month theme: Let's Read S'more inspired students to recreate parts of their favorite books! #Februaryreadingmonth #literacy #reads'more

@RocketReaders @annebeninghof Question for you! Were your first graders able to sign into their own google account to go onto Google docs? Or did a teacher sign them in?!

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

@bytesofbooks Then students could explore and learn about the library in a Flipped classroom method so they become more familiar with the library!

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

Unit 2: Act. 2: Chapter 3 of NOW ClASSROOMS K-2 covers flipped learning through videos. Currently, I am using QR codes to teach students about Nonficiton. A fun activity we have added is a QR code scavenger hunt. This is a great way to integrate technology! #reachoutlibs

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

@bytesofbooks My next QR project I would like to try would be to have either students or myself create videos that explain fiction, nonfiction, online library catalog area, library expectations, etc. and then link them to a QR code that I place in those library locations.

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

@bytesofbooks I used it for 2nd and 3rd! It was a little wild, but they LOVED it. I also use @Seesaw which require a QR code to get in with all of my K-2 students. They all do really well with it so I want to integrate more QR codes with them.

@dnetrabheadkaps I love the sound of that!! That poster is a great resource! #reachoutlibs

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

U1A4: I have been focusing on the Inquire: A.Think 6d: Facilitator strand of the ISTE standards by encouraging students to use the Seesaw app to clearly and creatively communicate their findings during library assignments. #reachoutlibs

[Olivia Dwyer @WCESlibrarylady]

U1-A3: How did I not know ISTE has a community of people trying to navigate technology and library standards just like me?! It is great to know there are people out there working through the same content! Check out this awesome kid friendly standards graphic #reachoutlibs
