One of the things that I am taking away from this course is a list of “must have” resources for the reference section. I have to admit, because I teach grade one, I have seldom used the reference section of our library. But I have now heard of one resource that I think I would use with my students tomorrow if we had it (we don’t but I mentioned it to our TL). It is a Rhyming Dictionary. It came up in a discussion thread during the discussions as a resource that gets a lot of use and I can see why! I didn’t even know that this type of resource existed and so it was great to hear about it. This is one great thing about these discussion threads, you get to hear some really great ideas! This is definitely a resource I would be looking to purchase (and advertise to the teachers) if I were to become a TL.
Yes, they are lots of fun.
