πŸ‘€ #TakeALookTuesday--Diverse Titles Edition

We're celebrating Culture Week here at DCG HS, and students are able to self-select from more than three dozen sessions discussing everything from food insecurity to specific countries to music and holidays. One session available to students is watching book trailers for books from diverse authors and/or featuring diverse characters.

CLICK HERE to access the book trailer playlist.

Nearly of the titles from the graphic are included on a YouTube playlist of diverse titles, along with several more titles that are currently checked out. To make browsing more convenient--and to talk about the books more easily--the titles are on display together in the library as well.


Students visited the library to watch trailers and talk about books of interest and read alikes, and while they were here, we also talked about accessing the titles electronically on MackinVIA.



Not able to make it to one of the book trailer sessions? No worries! Just stop by the library to browse the display--and chat about one of these or other titles and authors you're interested in!

πŸ“£NEW!πŸ“£ December Library Events

With a large collection of makerspace and making resources in the library, it seemed like a good time to look at how to get students making, creating, and generally being imaginative, curious, and playful. So...introducing library events for the month of December!

To get started, we'll provide opportunities on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays starting after the holiday break and running through December. Each day has a focus: low/no tech on Mondays, tech-heavy activities on Tuesdays, and a blend of things on Fridays. 

Got questions? Want to know more? Feel free to email or reach out to your study hall teacher or me for more information--hope to see you soon!
