Why, yes, it HAS been awhile since I last posted. However, that doesn't mean that nothing has been going on in the library. In fact, we have been SUPER busy with working, sharing, and collaborating.
Recently, Ms. Tuthill's classes were in the library, working on their I-Search papers, which is a paper where our students follow an inquiry path of their own choosing to investigate a question that interests them. However, instead of just writing a paper, we decided to have our students publish an I-Search website (Weebly, of course!) to add authenticity, promote pride and ownership, and also to allow a more rich multimedia approach to their questions.
It wasn't always easy, but our students seemed to take on the challenge!
