Seeing these as well as the GVC work is helping me feel less overwhelmed! https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683154990 2020-08-17 16:38:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683154990 Follow MCL Holds Procedures? https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683155305 MCL is currently not using bags for holds pick-ups. If our school opts to do individual checkout for students, are bags necessary? Or will the 72-hour "sanitization" period enough? Thanks! ~Emily B.

]]> 2020-08-17 16:39:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683157082 Hoping our principals will be accepting of books first and lessons later. https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683157699 2020-08-17 16:39:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683157699 How much time will we be able to be in our buildings? https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683158540 2020-08-17 16:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683158540 I so appreciate all your hard work Susan and the team of curriculum developers! You all rock! Amazing to have standards based lessons to pull from and a clear plan of action for fall. https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683159513 2020-08-17 16:40:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683159513 Are there any "blue light" type products that we might be able to use in the library?

Thank you, as well, to the team for your hard work, clear thinking and plans. Wow.

I am feeling better but still overwhelmed.]]> 2020-08-17 16:44:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683172799 Grateful https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683174606 Feeling grateful to have such an amazing supportive group of district librarians as I struggle with feeling overwhelmed.

]]> 2020-08-17 16:45:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683174606 Based on what happened Spring 2020, I'm worried anything not starting until Sept. 14 will be largely ignored because the community gets set in "how it's all going to work" for the year and it doesn't include this. Does that make sense? That's what I saw in Spring. tmaier2 https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683181123 2020-08-17 16:47:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683181123 SeeSaw gdaviso https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683181782 Concerned about posting library lessons and videos on other teachers' classroom pages. Let's pay some attention to this.


]]> 2020-08-17 16:48:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683181782 Are we allowed to record our lessons to post later for students who couldn't make it to their assigned time? https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683189441 2020-08-17 16:50:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683189441 Clarification: Pick-Up Schedules https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683189800 For my own clarification: The schedules for when students can pick up materials from their school will be decided by each site locally? Meaning that there is no set direction from the district on when cohorts/grade-levels will be able to come to their schools to pick up library materials? If this is the case, I want to be sure that I work closely with my admin on talking about site-specific schedule. Thanks! ~Emily B. (Tubman)]]> 2020-08-17 16:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683189800 So glad to have a plan to share with my principal and staff. https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683190317 2020-08-17 16:51:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683190317 Consumables & Textbooks https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683807669 Did Consumable orders that were placed in the spring still go through? Can we anticipate those materials being in our buildings when we return?

If we are in need of more textbooks (i.e. one is going home with every student versus a class set staying in a teacher's classroom) will textbooks be available/ready to fill those requests? Thinking of some of my teachers who I know will wan to send home the textbook and corresponding student workbook to their students. Thanks! ~Emily B.

I'm just hoping I can get familiar with Atlas, set up bags, post lessons, thoughtfully create schedules, and keep on top of all of the other recommended tasks while managing a huge school as a half timer (with a super supportive but only half time library assistant). I'm going to need a lot of virtual hugs (and chocolate). ]]> 2020-08-17 21:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/683842296 Continued Chromebook Distribution sstone34 https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/688875336 If asked to track -- use a spreadsheet.

They will be available by August 27th. 3) The student notebook will be available in PDF form for each chapter (Atlas).5) Re textbooks - PPS does not have access to a digital copy. That said, Tarehna noted that, "the physical textbooks no longer align to the scope and sequence for 6th and 7th social sciences, but the digital resources do." sstone34 https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/699235633 2020-08-26 05:05:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/699235633 Quarantining books... bhall46 https://padlet.com/sstone34/2020_Return/wish/700294320 What is everyone using to quarantine books when they come in?
