1.30.2016 Kalani HS Library

2016
Nearly a month a passed since the last post.

New books from the Maker Faire book fair at Barnes and Noble were processed and put in a special display.

Yesterday we had our voluntary Honolulu Librarians' Meeting. We had an overview of GLAD strategies. We created  Literacy Awards which can be given to students. These are not gold stars but future study guides to help them learn English in or out of the classroom.

Today I attended iTeach808 at Sacred Hearts with teachers from 30 other schools. The keynote was a skype session with Alan November on "Empathy: The 21st Century Skill." He shared google search tips on how to find information a foreign country to get their point of view of an event. This was followed by a "Global Learners Playground." 11 presenters shared their use of tech to reach out to the world. It was an amazing day of sharing and learning.

Apologies for not taking pictures.
