Tuesday, August 23, 2022: Week 1 Fall Semester 2022

This week I emailed the media specialists at Early County Elementary, Middle, and High Schools to ask if I could complete my practicum hours with them. I also went to each media center and discussed what was required of me as it pertains to my completion of this course. Each one was willing to help. While there, I took photos of the layout of the media centers to document how they label the bookshelves and where the computers/Chromebooks are located for student use.

This week I visited my site supervisor, Mrs. Jackie Williams at the Early County Elementary School Library. During my visit, we talked about the Activities Report that I have to complete. Some of the activities that she does with students are Library Orientation for grades 2-5 and one First grade class. She also has Storytime with Kindergarten. The books that she has read so far this year are: The Wonky Donkey, Grumpy Bird, Do Not Bring Your Dragon to the Library, and Sticks. She stated that after storytime, there is usually an activity for the students to complete. I asked that she inform me of the next Storytime so that I can observe how she conducts it. Below are pictures of the covers of the books she has read and where she has Storytime in the Media Center.

Week 5: September 21, 2022 - Fall Semester 2022

This week I work on my Personal Learning Network. This task was very informative and I found good websites, blogs, podcasts, and videos that in addition to the ones included in my PLN. I had never considered listening to podcasts or reading blogs related to the role of a school media specialist but looking through the various ones on the internet, there are some that I will be listening to and reading. While completing this task, I had to decide on which Web 2.0 tool to use to give the look that I wanted. I used Padlet to create my PLN. Although we are only required to post 2-3 resources for each category : blogs, social networking, podcasts, video or video series, websites, training materials, and professional articles, there were a lot of good sites and resources that could have been included in my PLN. https://padlet.com/kr06982/jz17vz56mru51v5
