What’s your first and last name?
- Kim Moody
What do you teach / what is your ‘title’ at school?
- Teacher/Librarian
How are you involved in education?
- I am a school librarian who teaches students to question the world around them, appreciate cultures from around the world, and love to read for reading’s sake, not for extrinsic reward. I share new technology ideas with staff and collaborate with grade levels to extend the learning they are accomplishing in the classroom. I am constantly reviewing and building the collection at my school. I am passionate about curiosity!
What does your ideal school or classroom look like?
- It would be fantastic if my school was small (less than 400 students) and felt intimate so that everyone knew everyone. Students would learn in the way and at the pace that worked for them, individually. Teachers and Paraprofessionals would work together to see that individual needs were met daily. Every student would set short and long term goals to meet that would provide them with the best education to prepare them for whatever their future held. Utopian, I know.
If you were to lead a session at Edcamp, what would it be about?
- This is my first edcamp experience, so I probably won’t lead a session. However, if I could, it would be about helping new teachers use the library collection and the school librarian as resources.
