This week, I have helped Lintner several times with literacy class suggestions for books.
This morning I have passed on a link to Strz. for World Cultures for talking about a cmty’s assets rather than its defecits. Hours 1-3 i have been working almost exclusively one on one with Seniors and their PSAs. I have downloaded music files, helped edit music files, helped edit pictures, taught about adding ppt. slides to MovieMaker, etc.
–I barcoded a bunch of the graphic novels from the anime club donation and put in an announcement about them for students and staff.

The purpose of this blog is to be a daily log of accomplishments in the media center. These could be conversations, sharing sessions, emails to teachers, and more.
First hour: Some AV equipment issues.
Second hour: Catching up on technology blogs. Trying to figure out how to view a Google Lit Trip for Night by Wiesel, which is taught in 10th grade English classes. Figured it out.
