Hello everyone! My name is Sarah Feldman and I am the librarian at North Park Elementary School in Hyde Park, New York. The lions in the photograph are two of our North Park friends who live in the library. They love their super cool coupe car and the students always make sure the lions put on their seat belts when they go for a drive. How cute is that! By the way, just in case you were wondering, these characters are two of the mascots in our "Healthy Highways" program.
I am taking this class to keep up to date about the latest new Web tools and get ideas for how I can integrate technology meaningfully into the curriculum. I took a similar online class a few years ago but I find that I need to repeat technology courses more than once to get the hang of things. One of my goals is to share the excitement of writing with students and I think creating and contributing to blogs is a great tool.
