A wild time in the library! πΎ Thank you to @texaswildlife for an engaging Skins & Skulls presentation. Students became wildlife detectives, identifying mammals by their skulls while learning habitats, diets & survival adaptations! @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES @baverticalteam

April is School Library Month and I need to brag on the librarians of Dallas ISD @DISD_Libraries . What they're doing for students across this district isn't just impressive. It's transformational.
A thread about the REAL impact happening in Dallas ISD libraries every single day. π§΅π

One of the BEST library moments? β¨ Overhearing a group of friends-once reluctant readers-huddled together, swapping graphic novels and excitedly sharing their favorite parts. π Stories build community, and I love seeing it happen! π @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

Our Casa View Eagles loved the "Birds of a Feather" presentation by @texaswildlife. They had a great time learning fun facts, identifying birds, researching, and even measuring wingspans! Talk about spreading their wings! π¦

Our library transformed into a math lab! First graders read "Round is a Tortilla", then became shape detectives! Working in teams to find shapes hidden in plain sight. They celebrated every discovery and the excitement was priceless!π @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam
