 * Welcome to my online filing cabinet! I truly enjoy sharing my ideas with others, especially since so many of you have shared with me. You may use these lessons/ worksheets/forms/ideas, but please do not publish them without my permission. Credit is always appreciated if you share them, too.**

//**"Hurricane Tree" Photo taken by Captain Jocke Berglund in Sweden**// This photo was taken from the air after Hurricand Godrun swept through the area, and the image was formed partly by the storm and partly by the impact on the soil by the logging industry. http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit-us/whats-on/temporary-exhibitions/wpy/OnlineGallery/Photo.jsp?photo=2213

Subscription Databases A "one stop shop" of all of WCS's databases. For the passwords, see September's WCS Library Connection (or your Welcome Packet for staff).

__Supplemental Worksheets__ These are the worksheets that go with many of the lessons listed on the Lesson Plans page.

__Library "Goodies"__ Forms, PowerPoints, Handouts, Orientations... you name it, I've created it for my library. Feel free download and change them as needed. PLEASE DO NOT ALTER MY ORIGINALS, THOUGH! I'd love if you would add your originals or altered versions, too!

__Links For Librarians__ A compilation of links helpful for librarians. Many of them come from posts on LM_NET. Thanks, LM_NETTERS!

__Links for Teachers__ Links especially for teachers.

__Links for Students__ Need help with research? Want to play some online games? Here's the place for you! If you are looking for "just right" books, there is a link to book suggestions below.

__Links for Parents__ I often get questions from parents about reading levels, literacy ideas, etc. I also get many great websites forwarded to me from parents! Here are a few of my favorites (also check below for book suggestions).

__Book Suggestions__ For ideas on grade level titles, thematic books, and "read alikes" (example: if you liked Harry Potter, you might like...), look here. Also, book reviews of recently read titles. Add your own ideas, too!

__Quote Board__ Have a cute quote or story, something that makes you giggle long after the school day is over? Post it here (within reason, of course!)
