As I announced last week, we now have access to National Geographic Kids on OSLIS.
Here is information about the webinars being offered specifically for Oregon library staff and educators. Hope you can participate. If not, access to a recorded session will be made available at a later date.
September 5, 8:30 am – 9:30 am
or
September 29, 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Learn about this easy to use database of National Geographic content. It includes the National Geographic Kids magazine from 2009 to the present, 200 National Geographic Kids ebooks, and a library of 500 images. As time permits, the trainer will also explain how to use the Kids InfoBits interface which was updated in the spring. These resources can help support classroom instruction, inquiry projects, Common Core, and more.
I encourage you to register for one of these free learning opportunities and to share the information with relevant staff in your school or district.
Thanks,
Jen
