<div dir="ltr">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. <div><br></div><div>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! </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Thu, Nov 15, 2018 at 7:59 AM Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">This query is for K-5 librarians:<div><br><div>Is your library schedule considered a "special" like PE and Music?
