This week’s main story is about libraries, why so many books are being challenged, and how you really spell “Berenstain.” Trust us, it’s not how you think.

A new California law requires media literacy lessons to be incorporated into existing K-12 curriculum frameworks starting next year. @carolynjones100 @CalMatters Recognizing fake news now a required subject in California schools calmatters.org/education/k-12…

Today’s project — library word wall!! Because no matter how old kids get, they confuse “check in” and “check out”. What other terms should I add? #schoollibrary #schoollibrarian @TxASL

The KAUST School will be hosting the Thrive Educator's Conference in February 2024, featuring Rosalind Wiseman @AskRosalind. Strands in #diversity, #innovation, and #inclusion. Hope to see you there! Registration: docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLScX… #edtech #STEAM #EarlyEd #EarlyYears

I'm not sure what was more fun--co-facilitating a #teachersteachingteachers workshop on #generativeAI (aka ARRRtificial Intelligence🏴‍☠️😉) or doing it while dressed as a pirate on Halloween to a packed room! #promptengineering #aiineducation #ETCoaches #edtech #TKSlearns

DO IT! #Genrefying nonfiction was a GAME CHANGER for our #earlyyears library at #TKSkg! Remove barriers, simplify navigation, discover new books! We #repurposed old COVID barriers into gorgeous front-facing book trays.♥️ #TKSlearns #pyplibrary #tlchat #intlchat #IntEarlyEd

CHAMPION! Exciting new status and slick signature! edu.google.com/for-educators/… #GoogleChampions #GoogleEC #GoogleforEdu

Looks like it's official! I'm now a @GoogleForEdu Certified Coach! Interested in helping teachers navigate #edtech, or want to know more about certification? check out the program or ask me below! #ETCoaches #GoogleEC #edtechchat #GoogleEDU #educoach goo.gle/3hCXjBy

My view from the last couple of days (weeks?) in our #tksKG library reorganizing nonfiction. 🤪 #ditchingdewey #intlchat #EYtalking #EarlyYears #TKSlearns

Can we save time in #kindergarten by keeping #LEGO #Duplo kits organized? Trying out these custom dividers with #IKEA tubs. So far so good. #LEGOsteampark #TKSkg #EarlyYears #intlchat #STEAM

…and where #TKSkg students are also showcasing their robot creations for the University! 🤖 #TKSlearns #STEAM #KAUST

#kindergarten #robots are finally on display at the #RobotoKAUST 2023 exhibition at #KAUST! #TKSLearns #Intearlyed #STEAM

What a great start to #CSEdWeek with a parent workshop on Computer Science at #TKSkg, with time to play! K12cs.org provides a wonderful guide for the #EarlyYears. #CSforAll #K12CS #TKSlearns #CSEverywhere #IntEarlyEd

What’s the inside of a computer look like? While ideal for the take apart center, there’s still plenty to see! Another opportunity in the library at #tkskg! #EarlyYears #CSEdWeek #TKSlearns #intearlyed #EYtalking #STEMeducation #CSEverywhere

Look who’s visiting us today! So fortunate to be a part of this #KAUST community.

A little showcase of some fun family reads at parent conferences today. #tkskg #inTLchat #TKSlearns #pyplibrary

When drones visit the KG, we get excited! Thanks to the #KAUST RISClab team for being a part of our robotics experience! #earlyyears #IntEarlyEd #STEM #TKSlearns #TKSkg cemse.kaust.edu.sa/robotoevents

Just another day prepping materials for #tkskg students. #tksdesign #Woodworking #IntEarlyEd

#SEL is so important in the #creativeprocess. Here #TKSkg looks at the affective rollercoaster of #designthinking through the lens of a young maker! Thank you @PlayAttune @ashleyspires! #TKSlearns #TKSdesign #IntEarlyEd #EYTalking @e_manalastas

“Why yes, we can use that cardboard in Kindergarten!” Packing the car as we supply up in prep for a unit of joining and making with #tkskg and @Makedo. #EarlyYears #STEMeducation #EYtalking
