Dear All, The discussion about PT conferences has been very interesting. I am curious about something else: How many librarians do report cards from Library? At present, nearly ninety 3rd and 4th graders get marks and narrative from me. There is talk of expanding that to K-2. On the plus side, Library is taken seriously. (The other specialists do the same and more.) The challenge is, of course, time and authentic assessment. Our K-2 program is rich but more experiential--not really geared toward assessment at the present time. What is the practice in other schools? (If this has already been discussed by BAISL at an earlier date, please forgive me and ignore my question.) Best, Susan Faust Lower School Librarian Katherine Delmar Burke School 7070 California Street San Francisco, CA 94121 415-751-0177, Ext. 311
