|A few of the DC Elementary Library Google Classrooms|
Every Grade 3 - 5 classroom had its own library Google Classroom where students could access everything from our library main page to that day's digital activity. Below are just some of the examples of how we used Google Classroom:
- accessing and viewing book trailers related to state award books
- accessing, completing, and turning in reading comprehension activities
- using our library Symbaloo to find websites and databases for research
- viewing teacher instructions or lessons
The ease with which students could access that day's work--and return to it as they liked--made all the difference. Assignments that covered several days of library classes became easier to manage, and students could easily see what resources to use to complete different tasks.

Now that students in Grades 3 - 5 have used Google Classroom for a year, they likely will be able to return to school with a better understanding of how we'll use it in the library. What a great tool to manage classes, share resources and assignments, allow for technology integration, and engage students!
