This week I participated in an awesome webinar on "Developing a Culture of Literacy" from Joanne de Groot (you may have heard of her ;-))!!! She had lots of great literacy ideas, but also ways to integrate technology with literacy goals. One of my favourite ideas was "Skype an Author"....a site where classrooms can hook up with authors for free 10-15 minute discussions with authors. I think this is a great tool...for all schools, but especially for rural and small schools who have difficulty accessing author visits. I look forward to trying this out in our library this year!
