  1. Learning to Teach • A Year in iQuest • My goal: To learn how to teach children of all ages, • about child development, and how to work in a library.

  2. A Typical Day • Sign in at the office • Do something random until a class comes in (adding, weeding, inventory...) • “Quiet start” • Lesson

  4. Mary McLeod Bethune • One of the first African American teachers, went to Moody Bible College, and taught in South Carolina • missionary in Africa • met Eleanor Roosevelt • In her will she wrote, “I leave you LOVE; I leave you HOPE; I leave you a thirst for EDUCATION; I leave you racial DIGNITY; I leave you a DESIRE to live harmoniously with your fellow men; I leave you finally, a RESPONSIBILITY to our young people.” • Love the blogs! <http://www.petunia-bennett.blogspot.com/>

  6. Child Development • All in all I got to work with 2 different classes of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th graders • 1st graders are easily entertained - alphabet books. • 1st& 2nd graders still believe in the tooth fairy and Santa Claus, so fantasy genre can be confusing • March: 1st graders, Jack & Peter and Anna & Jane • 5th graders - Veteran’s Day.
