[aisle] Library next year

[Laura OBrien]

Destiny does allow you to set up students in “classrooms “, so I no longer require my students to use/bring an ID card. I’m not sure what my schedule will be like next year, but I’m planning on having 3 book carts available, with materials: 1 with K and 1st grade material, one with 2nd and 3rd grade materials, and one with 4th and 5th grade materials—this is also how our hallways are set up, so it may be easier for me to travel to the classes in that way. Still planning...thank you for all these great ideas!

I'm also going to try to seriously beef up our ebook collection. The 2 year books are appealing to me because despite the fact that they won't be permanently a part of the collection, their price points make them very doable. I also need to coordinate so I'm not buying stuff they can get from Bookflix or Epic. Oy!

The other issue is if you have fifth grade, then kindergarten, then second grade. Totally different books for each grade level. You can't push three carts at a time. When I was on a cart, I told teachers they'd need to come back to the room a few minutes early and that I'd be a few minutes late to the next class. This was especially true when I had to go up or down the elevator or across the entire building.
