The Library Hunt: A Strategy for Introducing Students to the Public Library (Video Clip)
Description:
In this Reflections video, Sarah Sachs, the Youth Services Director at a public library describes a collaborative project with a seventh grade English teacher to introduce students to the public library. For most students, their last formal visit to the library was in first grade. She re-purposed an instrument used with adults to create a Library Hunt instrument for seventh graders. This engaging project involved six consecutive field trips to the public library during English periods. Keywords include library hunt, beginning stage of research, seventh graders, public library, field trip. VIEW THE VIDEO.
