week 5 library thing

http://www.librarything.com/ a great site to source new books to read and share with others

week 5: play week

week 5 = play time
the following link would be a lot fun to use for a school holiday activity in the library. The children would be able to create their own name tags and learn a new skill at the same time all by playing and having fun

flicka - summer reading club


Summer....a great time for reading. Children were encouraged to be super heroes and read 10 books over the summer. The display showed the children the prizes they could win. Check out Barbie and Ken on the top shelf.

flicka - christmas in the library


The story time children made these santa faces for craft in the lead up to christmas 2007. Sometimes it is hard for them to leave their craft so we reached a compromise - a christmas stamp of their choice on their hand, if they left their craft to be displayed in the library. The display was effective and easily created a christmas feel for the library. The snowflake hanging in the window was made by 2 boys who were leaving story time to go to school the next year.

back to flicka

I have had sent to my work email photos that were taken of the christmas activity in the library. I would like to put them into my blog but have run into a problem and don't see to be able to get it there

week 4: RSS and newsreaders

setting up a bloglines newsreader account and learning about rss feeds is a whole new way to streamline the accessing of valuable information. The feed I chose 'the shifted librarian' , is only one of many feeds that can be accessed to keep me up to date with the latest library developments
