WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE STORYTIMES AND DIGITAL BULLETIN BOARDS?

Library Storytimes

The August Library Bundle includes three Library Storytimes – Welcome to the Library, Book Care, and Friendship. These are for younger grades, typically K-2 or K-3.

Part I – All my Library Storytimes include a librarian- or teacher-led, whole-group lesson or activity (Part I). Part I includes a song or poem, sign language, and group discussion.

Part II – This an independent activity, designed to keep students on-task during library checkout. The scrolling slideshow can be part of a lesson, or it can just scroll on a monitor. The scavenger hunt includes images for students to find (and color) in Part II of the scrolling slideshow.

Digital Bulletin Boards

This August Library Bundle includes five Digital Bulletin Boards – August Holidays and Celebrations, plus four back to school Digital Bulletin Boards.

Digital Bulletin Boards are longer scrolling slideshows for elementary students that can read text.

The August Holidays and Celebrations Digital Bulletin Board also includes Recommended Reads, two differentiated scavenger hunt activities, and extension activities to take home.

Librarians / teachers can certainly use some slides as a lesson, but it does not have two separate parts like the Storytimes and Library Lessons have.

Digital Bulletin Boards are designed as an independent library activities and are not designed as lessons. They do not include lesson plans. It does help keep students entertained so the librarian can deal with book checkout!

ARE ANY SLIDES IN THE AUGUST ELEMENTARY LIBRARY BUNDLE DUPLICATED?

Nope! While some information may be similar, no two slides or pages are the same in these library lessons. They are very different from one another.
