A nice way to engage students is by using learning games. Game Pages cybraryman.com/gamepages.html #TLSkyChat #sunchat #EduSky

My students enjoyed World Almanac lessons particularly using the perpectual calendar to find the day of the week they were born on. You can now do almanac scavenger hunts to find interesting information using Infoplease #TLSkyChat

We need to put a lot more resources at early childhood & K-3 grades. Even if we need to do one on one. No child should leave grade 3 without being able to read & do basic math well. I had students in the 8th grade who could not read well or do basic math. What do you think? #EduSky #edchat

A4 I would want my AI assistant to fact check and make sure the information is accurate. But how would I know since AI has given my wrong month, day and year of my birth as well as stated I died in 2016 and 2021. #TLAP

A2 I would like to learn more about AI (Artificial Intelligence) and its applications for education. However, AI has said i died in 2016 and later in 2021. AI page cybraryman.com/ai.html #TLSkyChat

Take advantage of the techspertise of your students. I created my own library catalogue (since our school district would not give us the funding) using a database and spreadsheet. I taught my Middle School library squad how to add to it. Students are eager to help #TLSkyChat

Many ways to be creative in the library. I had students design book covers, bookmarks & library decorations for each month’s theme. Creation centers for makerspace in the library. www.cybraryman.com/makerspaces.... Creativity cybraryman.com/creativity.h... @shannonmmiller is awesome #TLSkyChat

Please remember all those who served our country and sacrificed their lives. Especially remembering my Uncle Jack who died as a result of fighting in the Pacific in World War II. Memorial Day page https://cybraryman.cocm/memorialday.html #EduSky #sschat #engsschat #TLAP #edtechchat #MemorialDay

My concern with AI and the internet is finding if the information is accurate. When I searched my information they had my wrong birthday (wrong month, day and year) and in two instances they had my passing away in 2016 and then in 2021. How do we get students to verify what they find? #EduSkyAI

A2 My EOY reports were a combination of word processor for all the library activities and spreadsheet for the statitstics of everything I did. #TLSkyChat

A1 I think what you could bring back to discuss in class would be the flooding that has affected Venice, Italy and connect it to flooding here in the states. Flood page cybraryman.com/flood.html #TLAP

A1 You have to be proactive to protect & your position. Keep statistics on everything that you do and let everyone see them. I did monthly library newsletters for the staff/students/parents to keep them informed of new books & events. ALA Advocacy links. www.ala.org/united/advoc... #TLSkyChat

Learning takes place everywhere and at any times We should model constant learning inside and outside the classroom. My students enjoyed Field Trips www.cybraryman.com/fieldtrips.h... #TLAP #edchat #EduSky

You have to first make sure they know you care about them. Find out the best way that they learn. Show them how to problem solve, start with the basics and build from there. I used mnemonic devices with my children & students cybraryman.com/memory.html #TLAP

A3 You have to first build community in the classroom achers to keep this going. Model not being afraid to try new things. Listen carefully and attentively. Encourage their questioning and finding the answers to what they seek. Curiosity page cybraryman.com/curiosity.html #engsschat

A1 I used "What if " questions successfully. So happy that #engsschat is still going on as I started it.

We need to find the best way each student learns as some are visual, auditory, verbal, logical, etc. learners. We can employ a combination of old and new learning strategies. Learning Pages cybraryman.com/learningpage... #sunchat #TLSkyChat

Today we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day, which is held annually on the last Saturday in April. Locally owned bookstores (Indie) are places where you can find literary treasures. We need to encourage students to read more. Reading pages cybraryman.com/readingpages... #pd4uandme #TLSkyChat

Your library should be the home of a poem. Collect the poems students wrote and publish it. Poetry page www.cybraryman.com/poetry.html #TLSkyChat #EduSky

It's Earth Day. What have you done to protect our resources? Earth Day should be celebrated every day. #EduSky #TLAP #edchat #sschat

Change is something that I have struggled with administrators about throughout teaching career. When I developed something innovative & felt it would help students and others administrators always turned it down with the saying, "We don't do that here!" cybraryman.com/change.html #TLAP

A! I see this as going as high as you can by taking chances and avoiding the usual. #TLAP

Yes, it is difficult at the end of the school year to keep students motivated. Have them write letters to the other students in the school to give them tips to go through the process of picking a college or career goal. Try PBL projects cybraryman.com/projectbased... #bfc530 #edchat #TLAP #EduSky

A6 You should keep statistics on everything that you do in your library. The number of students served, circulation, classes you serve, etc. You have to advocate to keep your position and show that the library is the central part of a school. #TLSkyChat

A5 When a student or teacher thanks you it always brought a smile to my face and made my day. #TLSkyChat

@lemanskyrachel.bsky.social With limited funds you have to get the word out to community organizations asking for donations. I also wrote to publishers to explain the fact we had limited funds. Let your PTA etc know. Seek Grants Donors Choose... #TLSkyChat

A3 A great way to attract teachers to the library is to ave beverages and food . #TLSkyChat
