Online Webinar
Heather Lamb, Castleberry ISD - Are you looking to build capacity and influence in your school community while extending the outreach of your library program?

Will you continue to step out beyond your library walls to forge meaningful connections and relationships between your students, teachers, and community?

In this session, we will dig into the various kinds of outreach, sources of outreach, and the lasting impact of our outreach.

Library Conference -The Rose City Book Battle: Connecting Students to New Literature and Each Other
10:30 AM - 11:30 AM
Online Webinar
Ashten Ordmandy & Jessi Smyth, Tyler ISD - This past year, our district's MTS team created and implemented a district-wide competition called the Rose City Book Battle. In this battle, students from 3rd-8th grade read eight books from a district-created book list centered on the theme of "Courage." Students competed against each other (virtually this year due to COVID) to show off their knowledge of the titles and fight for the crown of "Rose City Book Battle Champion." This event provided students with unique opportunities to meet children their age on other campuses in our city, practice reading skills, and read books from new genres and formats that they may have never tried on their own.

Research is “Elementary” My Dear
1:15 PM - 2:15 PM
Online Webinar
Students start learning to research as early as kindergarten, making the classroom a perfect place to teach research skills that become a foundation for a lifetime of learning. Learn how to scaffold research for the youngest learners and equip older students with valuable information literacy skills necessary for a lifetime of learning.
Research requires students to analyze and synthesize information which are both important higher-level critical thinking skills. Through inquiry and research, students must ask questions, provide evidence for their conclusions, and explain those ideas. Knowledge is abundant, but knowing how to collect the knowledge on a certain topic or for a particular reason is a skill that will always be necessary.
