Join us for next week’s NCompass Live, “Library Challenge: The Amazing Library Race”, on Wednesday, July 29, 10:00-11:00 am Central Time.
The Kearney (NE) Public Schools’ Elementary Librarian team developed the
Library Challenge, which is used by all the Elementary Schools in the District. Stop students’ eyes from glazing over with this innovative
Library Challenge. Students work in teams to answer research questions faster than their classmates’ teams. Learn how hands-on challenges motivate students to find answers using all the tools available in the library. Children learn by doing to integrate skills into their own lives. Learning isn’t always quiet!
Presenters: Connie Jelkin and Kelly Melson, Kearney (NE) Public Schools.
