summer reading | Let the wild rumpus start

https://adventuresofachildrenslibrarian.com/tag/summer-reading

Let the wild rumpus start. Adventures of a children's librarian. Tag Archives: summer reading. Summer Reading: Comic Creation. August 21, 2015. When I first decided that I wanted to do a comic creation program as part of our summer reading program, I was thinking digital comics. However, I quickly realized that even all the ipads I could scrounge up (this was before we got our brand new super shiny ipads from our friends group) wouldn’t be enough for all the kids I wanted to let in.

Bilingual storytime: la paloma y el autobús | Let the wild rumpus start

My evening attendance has been waning, so using a pigeon book was my shameless attempt to lure people in. And it worked! I was so pleased and proud of him! Brown Bear, Brown Bear by Bill Martin.

Let the wild rumpus start. Adventures of a children's librarian. New Media/Early Literacy evening. June 22, 2015. Note: A version of this post first appeared on the Growing Wisconsin Readers blog. I also recently bought this new ipad case that only requires one hand to hold; that way, I can use my free hand to manipulate the app or gesture while I’m talking. I also run the adapter cord through the handle and that helps it stay in place. If the ipad’s disconnected, clap your hands (x2). I started by talki...
