Why I believe school librarians are leaders in integrating literacy and STEAM activities into all areas of the curriculum.
How To do this I will create collaborative opportunities for librarians to engage in literacy and STEAM activities with the intent to acquire new skills and identify ways to integrate into collaborative instruction.
What I prepare librarians to integrate literacy and STEAM activities into their daily practice and collaborative instruction with classroom teachers.
If school libraries are the heart of every school, then school librarians should be the life giving leaders who inspire students and teachers to bring their lessons to life! One such way is to integrate literacy and STEAM activities into all areas of the curriculum. To do this, librarians need to have the opportunity to collaborate, form personal learning networks, and gain confidence in their ability to integrate hands on activities into collaborative instruction. Without these opportunities students will miss out on innovative instruction and librarians will not gain the confidence they need to work with teachers across the curriculum.
