I'll have to do that next year.<BR/><BR/>I just pulled a book today about the "controversial" topic of plate tectonics!jeri hurdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348016275683691159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1498039026805922075.post-53944172127589025182008-05-31T01:35:00.000-04:002008-05-31T01:35:00.000-04:00I feel your pain.

My best weed? "Home Taxidermy", perfect for my city kids!<BR/><BR/>The most powerful tools I have for finding the right resources are forewarning and time. It's hard to get the teachers to let you know ahead of time what their classes will be doing but it makes such a difference. <BR/><BR/>I no longer have a say in how books are catalogued as it is done centrally in our district. When we automated I was without a working online catalogue for almost 3 months. Talk about working blind. <BR/><BR/>I always make lists of which books go with which assignments and keep them in a binder. I may not get all the titles onto the list but at least it's a starting place the next time around. It also helps me see where I need to build the collection. <BR/><BR/>Hope you don't have to spend all summer herding dust bunnies!Lesley Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04296694892145418961noreply@blogger.com
