Adventures in the Libraryland- Veterans Day

Happy Veterans Day to all those that have served or are serving.

This weekend I worked on social media posts to highlight our Veterans on campus, but also finished up my lesson for our LIFE Students- Government Class.

Reminder about my school:
-9-12 Comprehensive High School
-Have various programs that include Culinary/Floral/Vet Tech/ROTC and more
-LIFE (Learning in a Functional Environment) 9-12

Anytime I can showcase our Premium Resources- I am doing it! It doesn't matter the content or ability- there are so many resources to make them accessible for all learners.

Lesson:
-Using Britannica to learn about Veterans Day (we will spend time navigating to the article)
-Completing a Matching Sheet
-Using Canva to create Thank You Cards for our Veterans on campus (this might be finished in the classroom depending on length of time for the other pieces)

Reasons I LOVE Britannica for ALL levels of learners:
-can change the reading level
-can change the font size (make that font size bigger!)
-can change the language
-can have it read to you

Ways I am making this lesson more accessible to all:
-anytime I need them to type something or search for something I have it spelled out so they don't have to look at the screen

-The presentation that I used as very little words and has one picture per slide (This is great for any type of scaffolding)
