Check back often for updates on Library info, how to docs and videos, blurbs about new resources, PD info, tech ideas, and more! If you have suggestions on what should be added to this page please fill out the survey below.
It is hard for me to know what topics are being taught all over the building so I would LOVE to hear from you! We have so many amazing books and online materials that can support your lessons as well as help our students grow. Please use the two forms below or stop by the library anytime!
Need some supporting texts for a Unit? Fill out this form. I usually need1-2 days to pull books for you but more advanced notice is appreciated.
Some past examples of topic materials pulled from our library collection:
Life cycle of a tree
Black History Month biographies
Habitats
Pollinators
Picture books with Math and Science content
Ancient Egypt
Ocean animals
SEL content addressing a specific need
*If I am unable to find books for you, this helps me keep a running list of books we need to purchase for the collection.
Would you like a supporting page for a Unit to be created for the Mildred Classroom Connections site? No problem!
I can research the databases, physical collection and other resources to gather grade level materials that students can access anytime. Or do you already have materials or links but you just need a place for them to live all together? That's also an option.
Depending on the amount of content found, age level of your students, and complexity of the topic, the amount of lead time needed will vary.
Please give me AT LEAST 14 days of advanced notice for an online page. And preferably on a topic you know you will teach every year, so that we can keep adding to it and fine tuning each year and it is worth the time spent researching and setting up the page.
I will post things here that catch my eye or that you may not have heard about... check them out! 🧐
