Kiersten Cole Marina Sweeney @kcowell7 Thank you sooo much!!! 🥰🥰🥰

In the past 5 years, Amulet books by Kazu Kibuishi have taken up 6 out of the top 10 books checked out from the library. So of course I had to paint my literacy lantern as the cover of book 1! #BeProudBeDale

#beproudbedale 4th and 5th graders learned all about the Pacific Northwest tree octopus… and then learned that you can’t trust everything you read online! Research is the first step to any makerspace project, and now we know how to look for credible sources

This week in makerspace, 5th graders used NASA’s Eyes on the Solar System to research a planet and design a greenhouse for growing plants there. I can’t wait to see the models they create next time! #beproudbedale

EDUCATORS and LIBRARIANS: do your students like graphic novels? I’m giving away 2 class sets (25 copies each) of my new one, The Hunger Heroes: Missed Meal Mayhem (here and on Instagram)! To enter: RT this tweet and follow me. Bonus entry: tag a pal who might like to enter too!

That’s a wrap for the first Dale Street quidditch club! #beproudbedale

My day was made by Asher in Kelly Chamblin’s class who told me “Makerspace makes everyone’s day better. It’s like learning but it’s interactive and fun” 😍 I have to agree with that! #beproudbedale

New book alert! This is going to be popular! One student in particular has been waiting a long time for this book, so when it was delivered at the end of the day, I knew I had to rush to deliver it. There’s nothing like getting a book you’ve been waiting for! #beproudbedale

5th grade is learning about the Big 6 research model this week and applying it to their History and Me project. Great conversation and ideas from Kelsey Buff’s class this morning! #BeProudBeDale

This week in makerspace: 4th grade learning about circuits with the #makeymakey I love to see the collaboration as they play a song together! This performance is from @MissMacDonnell’s class #beproudbedale

The library’s Medfield Cares About Prevention - MCAP bear has become a torch bear-er in the center of our #Olympics book display! #BeProudBeDale

Check out these awesome #makerspace projects on display in the library! 🎉 #DLDMedfield #beproudbedale

Who knew learning about dirt could be so fun? 5th grade was so engaged learning about compost with help from SciShow Kids and designing their own compost bins! #beproudbedale

Happy National School Librarian day! Thank you to @MissPlympton and Tyler for the appreciation 🥰

Loved the #collaboration between students and teachers from so many different classes to finish this puzzle before vacation! #beproudbedale Jenn Seaver

So excited to share some graphic novel knowledge with grade 5 at CPT today! #beproudbedale

Just a few of the amazing comics the #BeProudBeDale 5th grade made with Pixton, based on their book club books! Such creative representations of scenes from Aru Shah, Percy Jackson, Coraline, Wings of Fire, and City of Ember! Roshani Chokshi Rick Riordan Neil Gaiman

Happy summer from the #beproudbedale library squad! Btw, the matching shirts were planned, the completely matching outfits were not - we’re just so in synch! I’ll miss you next Kiersten Cole, but luckily you’re not going far 😆
