PK-6 tech specialist (still a librarian at heart) at an independent school in RI. I love reading YA, listening to podcasts and reading aloud to my daughters.

Warms my book loving heart to see such a wonderful tweet starring a former student! #Librarians4@dsantat

I’ve had a sweet connection with this kid over the many years. Every time I stop in around Rhode Island she makes an appearance at one of my events and I get to take a picture and see her in various stages of growing up. I think she’s my favorite kid person 🙏❤️

@jenniferlagarde @TchKimPossible I’d love a copy and one to share with @melenihan !

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@lifewithThisOne Wow. Hard. Is she in an all remote cohort or will she be online in the class while others are in person?

It’s not always enough to just say PROTECT TRANS KIDS. Sometimes we need to dig a little deeper so we can say PROTECT TRANS KIDS AND HERE IS WHY. https://t.co/sW4Oyvtj0W #TransRightsAreHumanRights #transisbeautiful #transathletes

@GiftedTawk Hardest may be having them keep space while the spheros move around the room - will have to stress them driving the robot back if code goes awry instead of physically retrieving

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@GiftedTawk I will. We have plexiglass dividers I can set up, on tables or the floor so students can face each other and talk from 3 feet away- that way they can collaborate on the code they are entering on their own devices and then test out the programs on their spheros.

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@GiftedTawk I usually have students work in groups/pairs but this year will be individual. They may choose to work together on a final program where their robots interact but they will have to stay physically apart. I need to figure out how to have them only touch their own sphero!

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@GiftedTawk Oh, and I have no virtual learners in my 6th grade. Trying to figure out how to make it work in 5th with some virtual students.

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@GiftedTawk I am starting spheros with my 6th grade class tomorrow. I am lucky to have a large room and small classes, plus 1-2 days for the robots and iPads to be sanitized/sit in between each class.

@katebcochrane We are currently on a breakfast for dinner every Tuesday night schedule. It's everyone's favorite night. Will try the oats tip!

My 12yo had a homework assignment to create a timeline of the influential books in her life. I LOVED what she did (and the books she chose!). Inside the books she wrote a blurb about how the book impacted her. ❤️

[Erin Broderick @librarybrods]

@booktoss Yes! I am sending little pride packages to my MS GSA kids since they can’t attend any events this month. It’s been sooo fun to put together.
