Just a quick post here, based on a bunch of letters I got from my G1 students asking what the “roles and responsibilities of a librarian were” – I had to very quickly cobble it together in about 3 minutes I had between classes, so I’m sure I’ve forgotten tons. What I wanted to bring across is that what you see is just a fraction of what you get with a teacher-librarian. And even so, it’s just so frustrating that whenever I’m doing one thing, it means I’m not doing something else that I probably should / could / have to / ought to/ be doing.
Fortunately I’d just been reading Nasreddine that morning – I’ve taken to reading a couple of picture books while I have my breakfast to set my day off, and it was the perfect antidote to that feeling of hopelessness.
