Learning Reflection: Children's Interest Group

Submitted on Friday, November 6, 2015


Full Name: Abigail Andrews
Email: aandrews@washcolibrary.org
Library System: Washington County Free Library

Event Title: Children's Interest Group Meeting

Top 3 things learned:
- Heard about great books to use in storytimes and other programs (Tap the
Magic Tree was my favorite)
- Gained exposure to SMRLA's 500 by Five book program
- Explored Playaway Launchpads (which will probably be purchased by WMRL
for the 3 counties)

How to implement: 
       I have heard of other libraries doing either 500 by Five or
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten and have thought that would be a good program
to implement. Beverley Izzi and Megan Jones from Calvert County gave us
permission to use their resources, and I would love to see the three counties
work together to implement a similar program.
