Overview

High Interest Library Lessons for High School offers inspiring tips on how to integrate the essential aspects of a best-practice library curriculum into punchy, high-interest lessons for secondary students (7-12). Using the Three Spheres of Library Skills model as well as the GRAF Framework (Growth mindset, Agency, and Framing), Mali will offer insight into how to build lessons which use current psychology, education and library science research to effectively teach students higher-order skills in reading engagement, research and critical literacy skills. Mali will share ready-to-use printable lessons and activities as well as planning documents for developing your own tailored own high-engagement lessons.
