TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Hi everyone! :) I've been a library media specialist for eight years and absolutely LOVE my job! Before becoming a school librarian, I taught language arts for seven years to 6th and 7th graders. I'm constantly trying to find books and subjects that will inspire our students to READ! The materials I create for my library media presentations mix contemporary images with well-researched information. Along with my enthusiasm for reading and researching, these presentations are my best attempt at keeping our middle school students engaged while I'm teaching. :)
