Thanks to the collaborative efforts of your librarian and Mrs. Mitchell, we have a new teaching strategy for you! Reserve library time for breakout teaching! The idea is to utilize this time as a tutoring session. For example, math may have a station for students struggling with fractions, one for graphing, another for simply finding X, and one for 2 and 3 step equations (examples provided by our students). With flexible seating, whiteboards, and a mobile ActivePanel, your Media Center has all your breakout teaching needs met!
