📚 School librarians have got us booking multiple trips to the library! (We couldn't help our shelves) 😆 Thank you for inspiring students to read & learn as they progress through chapters of their lives. #ThankYouThursday 📚

It was a real honor. Stellar your readers and writers in the group. Thank you for the opportunity
Yesterday, our book club had a powerful conversation w/ author @Trent_Reedy! Wonderful advice on becoming an author & many moving stories about how the people he met in Afghanistan influenced he & Jawad Arash's writing of Enduring Freedom! 5️⃣⭐️ experience for our #KHSreaders!

Found out today that a HS senior saved every bookmark he ever got from my middle school library. You never know your impact on kids. #schoollibrary #middleschool

Thank you for the shout-out. The KENT STATE audiobook won the ALA Odyssey Award & is performed by amazing actors: 🙏 @SingleWithFries @ChrisGebauer @johnnyheller @Roger_Wayne_Jr @ChrisDelaine, KoreyJackson, DaviddeVries. @Scholastic
We listened to Kent State by @DeborahWiles101. It is about the events of May 4, 1970 at Kent State and is told in multiple voices. The audiobook is very powerful! The students really liked it! It's only about 2 hours long--definitely worth a listen! #audiobooks

But not all .edu webpages host peer-reviewed research, and .org has no connection to credibility. At all. @samwineburg

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear from students is that you can trust (or dismiss) a site just by looking at the domain. Not! 👇🏼

Ah, thank you so much for finding this story and for finding in it such things. All my best wishes to you and to all for whom you do your good work. ❤️
This novel in verse captured my curiosity from the very first line. The story was heart-wrenching at times, but always had a thread of hope running through it. The author’s note at the end solidified the value of this character/book for many teens.💙 @TonyAbbottBooks #khsreaders

How would you describe your #schoollibrary? 📖
We love the below definition from one of our supporters that labels the library as a place of retreat, freedom, education, kindness and - of course - a little madness! 💜

Did you know our @galecengage databases have much more than just "traditional research" materials? Yesterday we helped our Work Based Learning teacher find Nigerian recipes for a student to use during upcoming cooking lessons!

Many online sources are untrustworthy. Don't waste your time on one before you know who's behind it.
Remind students to conserve their attention when evaluating information online with this classroom poster
