In Tune With the Infinte

It's amazing when you reconnect with a group of people who are talented, enthusiastic and willing to try new things. I'm now back in the library at a local school in a part time position and have been relishing the conversations and connections with my teacher librarian networks. At a recent PD day we talked about integrating a new framework for information literacy in school libraries, and shared ideas on classroom practices and innovations with literature and technology. It's so interesting and informative to see and hear how we incorporate similar techniques and pedagogies but in different ways so they make sense for our school situations. Technology, literature, music and craft ideas were presented and everyone went away with a myriad of ideas and inspiration. What a multi faceted, stimulating and future learning focussed group of educators!  

'WithThisBookWeCan' was an idea that emerged from this day. This series of podcasts will be about discovering and sharing some creative ways with technology and thinking routines to bring literature to life in the classroom. Keep a look out for posts starting in a few weeks here and on Instagram from ideator and fellow TL Lynette Barker and myself.
