My School Library

I am really looking forward to being a elementary school Library Media Specialist. The opportunity presented itself to me this past school year and I passed it up. I wasn't sure that I was ready to leave the classroom quite yet so I opted out of the school library pursuit. However, now that I have a few graduate courses under my belt, I almost wish I had taken advantage of the chance to run my school library. I have so many ideas that I want to try out. I can think of numerous ways to "brighten" up the library and make it a place where the students want to be. (Not that they dislike it now!) Actually, the library is exactly where my students want to be. Every chance they get, they high-tail it right out of my classroom. What a wonderful place to spend your time!
