STEM讲故事

By Rachel G. Payne

是的,我坦率地承认,我觉得太像一个图书管理员。通常,这是一笔财富,但是当我第一次开始增加STEMinto my storytime programs, this became a problem. I kept looking for books to read to kids in the non-fiction section. My go-to favorites were红眼睛树蛙by Joy Cowley, illustrated by Nic Bishop, andActual Sizeby Steve Jenkins, both solidly in the 500s. While I love these books, I was thinking too small. It took Lynn Cole, a science educator from theQueens Library Children’s Discovery Center,她对科普活动的工作人员在培训期间转移了我的思维在学龄前儿童Brooklyn Public Library(BPL)。她打开我的心灵thinki的另一种方式ng about the books I was already sharing by reminding us we could find science and math concepts in the picture book section as much as anywhere.

May the Fourth Be with You: Using the Force

星球大战研究GVRL库

罗伯特Lisiecki

May the fourth be with you. Wait, I thought it was, “may the force be with you.” You know a film made a monumental impact on society when people assign a date in the calendar year to geek out. Let’s get geeky, Star Wars friends.

I’m admittedly not a self-proclaimed Star Wars nerd, but I’ve had a few light saber fights in my day, and I was Jar Jar Binks one year for Halloween; so, that counts for something… right?

It’s fascinating to think about the impactful nature of Star Wars, and how it still remains a force today (they just releasedthe cast for the new movie!). Not only was it a monumental cinematic success, but it also impacted Hollywood, pop culture, and merchandising.

Out of the Office: In Germany!

Explore travel DK publishing

By Bethany Dotson

For Christmas last year, my husband bought me the Rosetta Stone German Level 1-5 Set. He was so excited to give it to me, in fact, that he convinced me to open it five days early (I have to admit—I wasn’t hard to convince). But upon opening the gift, I had to wonder out loud—why German? I had never expressed any interest in learning German—had I?

My patient husband, who is a mechanical engineer by education, by natural inclination, and by trade, responded that he knew that I wanted to take another trip to Europe, and he had settled on Germany as his #1 choice: not because of the fantastic history or culture, or even because of the food and beer, but because, and I quote, “they have a lot of engineers there and their trains run on time.”
