    "Shared Adventures: Bridging Special Needs Education and Library Resources" with Andrea Keller

    I had seen the amazing things Andrea was doing with her students online, and when I first met her in person at TXLA in April 2024, I was absolutely blown away by her energy and enthusiasm.

  2. Getting an Outside Perspective with Michael Czajkowski

    Getting an Outside Perspective with Michael Czajkowski

    This week, we're doing something a little different. I'm chatting with a life-long friend who is not a school librarian, nor is he an educator.  I think it's always a good idea to get some outside perspectives, and I feel this conversation does a great job showing why that outside perspective can be so important.  I hope you enjoy and take from this episode as much as I did!

    "Teacher & Staff Appreciation Day" with K.C. Boyd

    While we've had a "previously recorded" episode with the amazing K.C. Boyd, we have the Boss Librarian herself back with a new program to share!  While looking to her copy of Kristina Holzweiss's DEMCO School Librarian Planner, K.C. was inspired by Gratitude Month. She marshalled her Maker Club to create items for the staff and teachers across her school, something that has become an annual event.  Listen to K.C.'s tips and suggestions on how you can have your students engaging with entrepreneurship and expressing their gratitude toward the adults in your school!  Guest: K.C. Boyd Grade(s) Taught: 6, 7, 8 Resources:  Teacher and Staff Appreciation Day!

  4. THROWBACK: "Smash Boom Debates" with LaDawna Harrington

    4 NOV

    THROWBACK: "Smash Boom Debates" with LaDawna Harrington

    This episode was originally recorded for the second season of School Library Connection's "One Lesson at a Time" podcast. I listen to quite a few podcasts, but I hadn't heard of Smash Boom Best before LaDawna Harrington, a recently retired school librarian from New Jersey, introduced me to it. Now I'm hooked! And you'll be hooked on this month's One Lesson at a Time episode, where LaDawna talks to us about how she used this energetic, fun podcast as a template for a lesson that gets students excited to learn. LaDawna's years of librarianship and as a classroom educator are a gift! She brought so many awesome lesson ideas to our conversation that we had trouble picking just one! We finally settled on talking about LaDawna's lesson, "Smash Boom Best Meets Neurons and Endorphins." In it, students are put into a head-to-head debate to defend an assigned topic, using not only research but also creativity and cleverness to support their side. One of my favorite elements of this lesson is the way it gives students the room to get creative about sharing what they know. Lessons often require a very specific product, but LaDawna's unit encourages students to be clever in creating a final product that is interesting, engaging, and informative—and that can take any form they wish. In addition to being a fun lesson, it's one that will work across grade levels and will allow for collaboration with any subject area. LaDawna did this lesson in conjunction with a high school science teacher, and the students had a blast; but this could also be a great chance to work on information literacy and research skills, while also providing an excellent opportunity to collaborate—and perhaps with a subject area that doesn't often get as much library time as English or history.   View LaDawna's lesson plan, catch the original version of the episode, and even get a PD certificate!  Follow the link: https://schoollibraryconnection.com/Home/Display/2337511

    "Freedom to Read" with Andrea Caporale

    I first met Andrea at our state school librarian conference. She was wearing rainbow colored sneakers, and I had to compliment her on them. We struck up a conversation, and became fast friends. Andrea is a school librarian passionate about providing her students a safe, welcoming space and making sure they feel connected and respected.
