Quiet Reading Day

I've instituted a 'Friday is Quiet Reading Day' during both lunches and I really like it. It was great to do that today. Had to set up the projector for Mr. C for his 6th grade classes today in the library so they could discuss what was a joke, what was mean and what was bullying. So they talked about situations, what it fell under and how they perceived that situation. It was pretty interesting. I had the computer/projector cart set up for Mr. C and he had two classes in. One got done pretty much, the other didn't. So they will be back Monday. I had to close the shades so they could see the screen! But by 6th period, it had gotten pretty cloudy, so didn't need it as much, but still did anyway. Signed up for our Statewide Inservice to take a class on Self Care. That was a focus from our superintendent, so seemed like a good choice for the day. We have five meetings, but three of them are going to be with our Middle School Library Media Assistants - perhaps we are Specialists now! That's what is on my sheet for my hours. I'll have to ask. Signed up for the LibraryCon Live session. That was pretty interesting last year, so I'll try it again. Set up an appointment with our Scholastic Rep since Book Fair will be here before I know it! Got both Mr. C and Mr. M set up to get 3D printers for the month of October. I had the name wrong when I searched, and the area I needed to search in. Got all the hardbacks from my book order stripped and out on the shelves today. Started to work on the few paperbacks. Thought I'd make it easy for Mr. G's students who have to have a book for his class on Fridays for independent reading by getting some 'building' type of books out for them to choose from. I had four students come in, and moments later, Mrs. V walks in and shoos them all out! Mr. G is gone and they were told that there would be no library time today and would do worksheets in class instead. Had another set of students come in to take a test with an IA. Another group came to work on tutored math help. Had a lady come in that works with our AEM program and was going through my iPads and which students had one, which still didn't. Which students were no longer in the district, so she took those away. Ms. S came in while she was there and had called down her students to pick them up so they all got to talk with our AEM lady and she had them check their iPads to make sure they were all running correctly and some extra tips and tricks. That was great timing! This is a bit scattered, but the gist is there and I've been having internet issues! Posting before I loose it! Looking forward to the weekend!
