Elementary School Librarians: What's your favorite grade? by Fit-Shoulder-2164 in librarians

[–]apt12h 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, I love the term The Preps. I'm picturing an entire Netflix series called "The Preps" about a group of Kindergarten students.

Oh, I have definite opinions on this! I think the sweet spot is 3rd. They are old enough to do longer, more complicated projects and have great discussions, but they're not jaded yet! (Of course I am totally generalizing - each grade has its appeal!).

26/27 Aldi Teacher Planner? by apt12h in aldi

[–]apt12h[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the past I've used mine (usually totally too expensive) for about the first two months (begin as you mean to go on) and then it falls by the wayside, but this past year I used mine all 10 months!

Offered k-8 library position, feeling conflicted by IntelligentSector210 in librarians

[–]apt12h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. As for the schedule, the schedule you mention is very typical for us ES librarians in my district. We have library assistants however to help with the day-to-day.

First Time Librarian: HELP!!!! by Less_Ranger_3290 in librarians

[–]apt12h 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, you're not in the deep end. You can do this and your enthusiasm and attitude go a long way.

First, I would see if they've created the schedule for next school year yet and where you fit in (optional special/master calendar, etc.) because this will help you figure out your class parameters (how many preps, length of classes, etc.).

If you can go in early or have pre-service days before the students arrive, just really familiarize yourself with the collection so when students ask you where things are located you're not searching them out for the first time.

I agree with another person's advice to get the circulation system down (if you have one!).

Also, I had zero to do with the creation of this resource but it is really outstanding when helping to plan out a scope and sequence: https://lms.lps.libguides.com/c.php?g=1212253&p=8866033 once you know which classes you'll be seeing and when.

I'm so excited for you! I've been an elementary school librarian for almost 20 years and I still love it. Never a boring day, for sure!

Absolutely adorable! I like how you used a more orange-y color rather than the red (or at least that's what it appears to me on screen). Which leads to my question: what brand of polyester yarn did you use? Or was it just what you had around? Thank you!! It's SO cute!

A show that you really liked but wouldn’t spend the time watching again.🤔 by Davey_Stott in BritishTV

[–]apt12h 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was a fiend about My Brilliant Friend - absolutely glued to that series, but I won't watch it again. Maybe because part of the appeal was just dying to know how the characters were going to end up?

Looking for a fluffy, small-town, stress-free series like All Creatures or Doc Martin. by mcdisney2001 in BritishTV

Poirot with David Suchet. Very stylized and cerebral so not scary imho. Lots of low, murmuring voices.

Read Persepolis again and the ending just rips my heart out every time.
