The June 2025 Demco Activity Calendars For Early Literacy Activities and Children's Activities Are Here, Friends.

 

The June 2025 Demco Activity Calendars are here! 

I love finding these special calendars each month on the Demco site. I love printing them off to share with our teachers and I love sharing them online too. 

And they are great to share with our families over the summer. I just add them to our library Facebook page and newsletter. 

You will find the Early Literacy Activity for June 2025 here.

And the Children's Activity Calendar for June 2025 here.

Both of these calendars are filled with ideas and activities for you to engage with your students and children all month long.

You can also find all of the Activity Calendars here at the Demco Ideas and Inspiration site. 

Have a fun June, friends. 

I Am A Digital Explorer Poster...and a Sneak Peak At My New Book Series, ISTE Digital Explorers!

We have been working hard to debut my new book series, ISTE Digital Explorers, at the annual ISTE & ASCD Conference in San Antonio this summer. 

This early chapter book series published in partnership with my friends at Capstone and ISTE, introduces important concepts in technology education and highlights all 7 of the ISTE Student Standards in the 7 books. 

On Capstone's Fall 2025 Preview site, you will find...

...ISTE Digital Explorers highlighted. 

So far, there is a preview of Sonia Speaks Up and this amazing...

....poster of the ISTE Student Standards.  It's so much fun and I can't wait to hang this up in our library and classrooms, and share it with our families and public library too. 

And guess what?  Soon there will be an Educator's Guide, Stickers and even more to support this special new series.  I can't wait to share the special lessons and resources we created. We even have projects that include our friends at Book Creator, BreakoutEDU, MergeEDU and more.  

It's going to be so much fun to share these with all of you as you bring the ISTE Digital Explorers to your libraries and classrooms too. 

You Can Find The Recording and Slides From The May Future Ready Librarian, The Summer Bookshelf, Here, Friends.

              

On May 7, we hosted the May Future Ready Librarian webinar, The Summer Bookshelf: Professional and Personal Reads That Inspire. 

We had such a special lineup of library and education leaders, and a few authors too. 

You will find the recording of the webinar here. 

And the presentation here too.
