Feeling excited and motivated by the incredible conversations from teachers that transpired during our PK-12 book study about integrating media literacy in the curriculum using a constructivist approach to decoding media. @ithacalooksharp

@abmack33 reminded me today, that it's our job to lift each other up. In '20 COVID hit after the launch of my book that encouraged community engagement. Not ideal, but I was lifted up when I saw this Amanda Jones tweet. It's my turn to lift AJ, preorder her book, That Librarian.

I love this community partnership based learning experiences where students research how the lake has shaped our community by developing research questions to ask local experts, so that they can create a collaborate ebook as a class. #enjoyyourlearning

2 incredible days spent in Lake Placid @nyla_ssl Conference sharing the exciting work we are doing at Lake George and learning about the inspirational work being done across the State. Librarians are leaders!

If your school is lucky enough to have a full-time certified librarian, they're probably not being utilized to their full capacity. This week four librarians — @Boss_Librarian, @MobleyintheMix, @cuethelibrarian, and @barupatx — explore this topic with me. https://t.co/J9UDLWCI3h

Student leaders partnered up with the library to make a fun reading event for families. Our first ever Reading Cafe, featured treats made by our student bakers & Chef Jeff, and a student wait staff who served the treats along with a sample of books from the Book Fair.

Our Battle of the Books teams have been busy reading 10 books each since Oct. Today was their big competition at SUNY Adirondack against area schools. All our teams did fantastic! Our 4th grade team even came home with a 3rd place win during a 3 way sudden death finals battle.

One of my favorite all time events we’ve hosted for students!

[Lake George Elementary Library @LGESlibrary]

Making learning fun Super Bowl style! Learned how to play paper football from YouTube experts, repurposed used books to make paper footballs & found snack recipes in cookbooks. #enjoyyourlearning

[Bridget Crossman @bcrossm85]

@spkowalski I’m not sure what’s going on, but just like you provide strength to so many, I am sending you strength to grapple whatever it is that is weighing you down.

[Bridget Crossman @bcrossm85]

So many happy kids, making great memories with friends as they repurposed books into holiday decorations in the library. I love that libraries bring us together! 📚#enjoyyourlearning
