Great week in the library! 6th graders explored the space for the first time, parents were welcomed during Back to School Night, and 7th & 8th graders took on a fun new makerspace challenge #180WaysLionsLead #MTPSPride @Mrs_Boeh

The 2024 @aasl Best Digital Tools for Teaching and Learning have been announced!πŸŽ‰ This is one of my favorite places to go to learn more about digital tools that I can use with our students and teachers.Β  There is something for everyone, and for every subject, on this list every year. I have created a choice board for the 2024 AASL Best Digital Tools for Teaching and Learning. You will find it here,Β where each tool is linked in the image within the Google Slide. I love using the AASL Best Digital Tools list every summer as a place to go as I learn about different digital tools to use with our students and teachers each fall. I have included the link to this in the post so you can use and share it too, friends.❀️ buff.ly/3QXSqq5 #AASL #futurereadylibs #futureready #tlchat #edchat #edtech #ISTELib

Congrats to these super readers for winning this year's Battle of the Books! After months of reading and prepping, they battled until the end against some worthy opponents. Well done! Special thanks to Mrs. MacKenzie and Ms. Sondak for helping to make the Battle run smoothly today! And so much gratitude also goes out to the dedicated parents of the Thorne PTA who went out of their way to support this event from day one. Thank you! #180WaysLionsLead #MTPSPride #NJASL

These two students deserve a separate shout-out for winning the Flower Tower Makerspace Challenge: AJ and Alex built a sturdy tower (without using their hands) that was 25.5 inches tall! It took several attempts and many revised strategies to become the victors! #180WaysLionsLead #MTPSPride #makerspace

It's the end of our Flower Tower Makerspace Challenge, and this one was all about teamwork, ingenuity, and perseverance. No hands? No problem for these kiddos! #180WaysLionsLead #MTPSPride #STEAM

It's always a treat learning what @MissPlatto's class is up to and watching her students in action! So much creativity!
We loved our time in the library this week! Students have been preparing for our β€œ7th Grade Museum of Historical Eras!” They are making time capsules for the historical time period of the book club books they have read! #180wayslionslead @Thorne_Library
