@LCSEDU So thankful for our amazing, innovative librarian at Bedford Hills! She is truly ‘Pawsome!

I had an amazing time @RabbitHoleKC today! My librarian heart skipped beats to see my daughter so excited to read the books that were on display at every turn, and I got to dance with the Tawny Scrawny Lion! It was pure magic!

[Caroline Arp @ArpCaroline]

It has been FOREVER since I have posted, but I cannot wait to visit @RabbitHoleKC for Spring Break next week! I am one excited librarian!

Looking for a digital place to have reading challenges and share book reviews within the elementary school. It has come down to Book Taco, Biblionasium, and Beanstack. I really want students to be able to share reviews with each other. Thoughts on the best fit?

Hey Twitter #STEMPLN I'm teaching a university course and assignment is creating in @tinkercad to prototype a solution for @ConnectSDGs 🌏
A few Ss fear that #3DDesign in Tinkercad is too tough for elementary. Help me prove they CAN (besides my examples) with yours? Add here👇✌️

I must know more about @WeVideoEdu and the production process here! This could be the answer I have been looking for with our school announcements.🎉

THIS: A parent asked how 3D printers are used in the library, and after my answer, she said, “Wow. The kids should come in here more than once a week!” 👏 @aasl @ALALibrary @LCSEDU @BedfordHillsES @makerbot @FutureReady #makerspace #studentagency #futurereadylibs

This encompasses everything I want to do next. I would love to have monthly bookmarks with videos to share promoting reading and making! 🤩❤️📚

[Wendy Garland @wendygarland.bsky.social @dancelibrarian]

1st graders are going home with a bookmark that will help keep their place and inform their families about our library. Thank you for the inspiration ⁦@carolynvibbert⁩!

@sarannwrap01 @tinkercad @aasl @BedfordHillsES Thank you!

[Caroline Arp @ArpCaroline]

As I facilitated a @tinkercad tutorial station in the library, a 4th grader said, “I’m going to grow up to be a librarian, if I don’t turn into a robotics engineer first.” #dreambiginthelibrary @aasl #librariesareformakers #studentagency @BedfordHillsES
