[LM_NET] TARGET: Literacy Centers for Library

[V Graham <sakinahteacher@GMAIL.COM>]

My principal said that she would like me to set up my library in literacy
centers for next year.  For example, I would have students working in groups
of 4 at computers, in listening centers, independent reading in a cozy
corner, and at a research station. I have always done whole group read
alouds and library skills instruction with time at the end for book browsing
and check out. I am wondering what that will look like and how I can teach
the children to work independently in here  when I see some of them once a
week and some only once every other week.  Does anyone here teach library in
literacy centers or stations? What grades do you teach? How is it working
for you? How do you teach the children to use them independently?

Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer. I will post a HIT if
there is an interest in this.
