Tell Your Students! Cool "Happening" @ the Denver Library This Saturday!!


Cereal Saturday: Pilot Project
Saturday, October 3, 8 a.m.-noon.
Central Library, Level B2 Conference Center

Calling all kids! And that means all grown up kids, too, who love watching Saturday morning cartoons while devouring a big bowl of cereal. Denver Public Library is hosting this tribute to the days of ‘yore’ youth – we’ll be screening great cartoons from the 60’s right up through to the new millennium. Lots of fun retro stuff. And we’ll serve it up with a cereal bar of fun, nostalgic cereals – and healthy choices, too! But it gets even better for the real kiddos in the audience. Have homework that you need help with? Working on a project for school that is lacking good resource materials? Our reference librarians will be on hand to help with any homework or research project needs you have for school. So, yes, Moms and Dads – you are reading that right. Bring the kids and their research needs, and while you are feasting on Count Chocula and watching The Pink Panther, your mini-me can get some research assistance. This Saturday event is a test run and may return in the future! Free and open to the public.

Plickers

This was shared by a 6th grade teacher at my school ... incorporates the teacher's cell phone and QR codes ... kind of the modern version of whiteboard check-in.
