[AISLE-Share] Grades in Library?

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

Library in our school is a special and covers teacher prep time.  I see K-6
every day for 25 minutes.  I do lessons as often as I can-teaching library
skills, parts of book, genre, research skills, etc. in addition to having
students check out/in books and doing read-alouds.  I do not grade but
hoping to change that with 6th grade next semester.  Especially when I had
a student on Monday make the comment "Why do I need to do this - I don't
get a grade for it".  I am hoping to give participation points for that
class.

I started here this past February as the school's certified librarian
(first one they have had in 20 years).  In addition to teaching classes, I
do all the cataloging, shelving, etc. since I have no aide.  This has been
a learning experience for me and I'm so happy to be here!
