The librarian and the classroom teacher plan together to ensure instruction meets classroom curricular goals as well as national information literacy standards. Ashlawn library instruction builds on previous skills and is based on a schoolwide systematic approach. The number varies with grade levels. Kindergarten and grade one students may take one or two books at a time. Ashlawn students are encouraged to return their books and select new ones daily.
Many children come as soon as school begins each morning.
Moreover, students who need resources come to the library on an individual basis throughout the day. The author Mary Quattlebaum came to our school. She asked us if we like to write. Most of us did. She asked us what we liked to write about.
