My Project

This project is to get new and updated games for the school library. As the Library Media Specialist at my K-12 school, I have a lot of student traffic coming in and out of the library space and a large age range of students.

I love to have games and activities available for my students to use as they are in the library.

It is nice to have the games and activities for my students as they are in the library because the students are all in the library for different reasons. Some students need a comfortable place to eat lunch, to take a break from their busy day, or just want to meet a friend and play some games in the library. I also use the games during some of my class time with students as well. They love it when we have a game day!
