This six weeks the 3D printer was used to show our ESL students how they could use the 3D printer and the process of how the 3D printer works.

It was also used to print blocks for a Chemistry class activity in Mr. Chaps class.

The 3D printer can be used by students and teachers to create objects.

Students can ask any library staff member and we can walk them through the process of selecting an object to print.

At the beginning of February Mrs. Pinkerton, Legacy Librarian, and Mrs. Tahaney, Summit Librarian, were selected to be presenters at Texas Computers Education Association Conference in San Antonio. So, while MISD was closed for the ice storm, they were busy learning and presenting at the conference. They both enjoyed gathering ideas to bring back to the libraries and representing MISD sharing all of the great things that make our libraries POP!

With an average of 296 students visiting the library each day this six weeks, there is ALWAYS something happening here. Students love to play with the Lego Wall, Lincoln Logs, board games or just hang out.

This month we also had an "I have a dream" board to allow students to write down their dreams.

Don't forget we have a Green Screen Room for students to use to record videos.

Stop by the library to check out all that is happening in here.

The library strives to provide a balanced collection that meets the needs and interests of all students. If the students are interested in the book they are reading, they are more likely to finish the book. The library staff promotes reading through creative displays and highlighting new books.

Research shows independent reading is the best way to improve your vocabulary which has a positive impact on test scores. It doesn't matter what they are reading as long as they are reading. #keepreadingbroncos #Life Ready
