The silver fox from bone&silver hits it on the head with this post on Does setting boundaries make you uncomfortable? Good: you’re doing it right (Part 1)

I was inspired by this post on Building Emotional Literacy and Empathy in the library.

I’m very fortunate as the Library I work for has the most diverse collection, which supports teachers, and educators across Victoria. But I know only too well of Libraries that aren’t. Angela P. Dodson expands on the importance of diversity in Children’s Libraries with a thought provoking article.

I’ve been fortunate enough to pick up extra time at a High School Library. The school has rolled out a program of reading for Years 7 and 8 Students, and the Teachers who have them, also have to participate. So when I came across this post Something Miraculous, I wondered how many other schools are doing this?
A very interesting article on the classic of Green Eggs and Ham. I’ve always read it as a matter of consent, rather than persistence. So it’s interesting to see it being used in a classroom setting.
