It early July- but year 10 at Bode is coming up fast which means it is time for those wish lists to start making an appearance!

A7: Oh! I also make personalized library passes for my teachers based on their interests (to the best of my ability). Sometimes I connect them to books I know they love, cultures they are from, sports they follow, favorite animals… whatever tidbits I can pickup. #TLSkyChat

I do a Question of the Day on a dry erase easel. Super easy and most of the time I can put a student aide in charge of changing it! 😊 This year it has been more frequently me, but the kids love getting to pick the questions!

A7: The most popular thing I’ve EVER done for staff only cost me time. I made bookmarks with their pet photos. I made them one laminated copy of each pet they gave me (this was a surprise gift I hand delivered) and put out copies for student use in the library. Everyone LOVED them! #TLSkyChat

A7: I’ve also done a Double Good popcorn giveaway! I made it into a bigger event for staff that also included stickers, a Wipebook giveaway, and free books! My goal was to get them into the library and get them thinking about the space, reading, and collaboration! #TlSkyChat

announcement slides that play in our cafe and hallways. I try to keep these simple since they only see them for 10 seconds at a time. #TLSkyChat

A1: My Library logo is simple- books and my school/library name in bright colors. I have it in a few layouts for various purposes. I’ve been using it for about 3 years and try to put it on anything I share within my building. I even have it on a t-shirt that my assistant principal mentioned wanting!

It’s always a good day to share #Canva tips with your colleagues! @melissacorey.bsky.social and I are diehard fans of a theme- today’s theme: Bootcamp!
I hope our attendees learned a few new skills to make their days easier!

Best idea I had this week: ask my staff to send me photos of their pets for bookmarks!
I will print these out on cardstock for my bookmark supply. I also printed and laminated one for each staff member who sent me photos!

Kicking off my foray back into 3D printing with these precious tiny dragons!
This video is sped up and only shows a few portions of the process- but this little guy took right at one hour to print. ❤️
