What's the best way to add signage to metal shelves like these? I'm thinking about those labels that go on the edge of the shelf. #TLSky #Skybrarian #Skybrarians

This is such a lovely thread to read. I'm having trouble choosing one book. For me I think it was the joy of either sharing a book with someone (often my dad) or of getting completely absorbed by a story for a while.

In honor of Dolly and her commitment to getting books to kids, tell me about a book you read as a child that changed your life. I’ll start: so many, but tonight maybe I’ll say A WRINKLE IN TIME, a book that taught me anger wasn’t wrong.

This Sundogs nominee made me cry. Lots on grief and friendship. Saving Wolfgang by Gregor Craigie #MYRCA #Kidlit #TLSky

This MYRCA nominee was delightfully creepy and twisty. Very fun to read. The Ghosts of Bitterfly Bay by Mary Averling. #MYRCA #TLSky #Kidlit

For students who have trouble getting started on a task or struggle with one of the earlier steps, this strategy gives them practice with the skills in the later steps. Interview with Melanie Meehan www.cultofpedagogy.com/backward-cha...

Starting a student a few steps ahead can help them experience a sense of completion that might otherwise be out of reach.

This MYRCA Sundogs nominee has such a creative concept! Caleb travels back in time with his family to save artifacts that would otherwise be destroyed, until they run afoul of the Time Council. Time Surfers by Kevin Sylvester. #MYRCA #TLSky #KidLit

My favorite MYRCA Sundogs nominee so far! I'm going to suggest this to grade 4 teachers as a read-aloud. Funny, relatable, and full of Dene cultural teachings. It would go beautifully with the Pimachiowin Aki Minecraft activity by @logicsacademy.bsky.social. #MYRCA #TLSky #kidlit

Next MYRCA nominee: Way Off Track, a graphic novel by Carl Brundtland with art by Claudia Dávila. This was a fun, quick read with really strong characters and voice. Nansi's Jamaican Granny was my favourite. #TLSky #kidlit #MYRCA

My second MYRCA Sundogs read of the summer: Invisible: The Sort of True Story of Me & My Hidden Disease, by David Soren. J.J.'s disease shows up tangibly in the form of a creature only he can see. Great for those with similar experiences and empathy-building for those without. #MYRCA #TLSky

Finally started working my way through next year's MYRCA Sundogs nominees. I really enjoyed this one! Themes of healthy friendships and using your gifts in positive ways. And it's set in Winnipeg! #TLSky #MYRCA

I'm taking a course on cataloguing right now that's a bit of a slog, but it has its delightful moments. I like Ranganathan's 5 Laws of Library Science: Books are for use. Every reader [their] book. Every book its reader. Save the time of the reader. Library is a growing organism.

I really appreciate this perspective. Looking forward to rolling out a digital makerspace at my school next year which hopefully will increase that thinking time for students.

I work at a school that prioritizes clubs, which has been lovely to see. I'm enjoying taking time this summer to think through club ideas. Many of our clubs are only 15 minutes at recess, which is a tricky constraint.

Visited the Wpg Children's Museum today and loved seeing all the books everywhere. Great connections to the exhibits and a chance for a calm moment in the middle of excitement.

Loved doing our divisional Minecraft challenge with grade 5s! Lots of skill building here.
