We’re in full summer mode now! Sadly, that doesn’t mean we’re on the beach sipping cool drinks and relaxing. We’re still working, but it means we get to bring you all these great links from this week. Enjoy!
- Learn about the library-museum connection happening at the Corning Museum of Glass. It’s all about seeing a process from beginning to end.
- Our original post about the PoeTree installation inspired teacher-librarian Taryn Berghuis to make a whole garden of verse!
- Dig into Fahrenheit 451 with some exploratory drama games, brought to you by a fledgling LAIP project, The Unbound Players!
