Tom Wool gave a great presentation at our meeting last week on Giving Directions and Teacher Talk. It seemed to me that everyone really enjoyed it, and took something away from his workshop.
Hello All!
As promised, I've attached the slides from my "Giving Directions" presentation to this email. Thank you,

Ventures Resources in Google Drive: It was easier to simply share you on the folder than to copy the myriad resources. You should have received an email that you were shared.
I'd love to hear from you all- have you taught your lesson yet? How did it go? Leave a comment at the bottom of this blog post. Remember, we want our Community of Practice to be an active, enriching experience for everyone- throughout the term,not just at our teacher meeting.
TEACHER MEETING
Please send me pictures, and be sure to include the branch name and level.
I need them by the end of the business day on Wednesday.
If I already have enough submissions for the week-
that just means your pictures will be published the next week.
Personally, I think the pictures that you share are the best part of the blog.

IMPORTANT
Dear Colleagues,
We are writing to announce that the Library is upgrading to eTime Version 8.0, our payroll time and attendance system that is administered by ADP. The planned “go-live” date for the upgrade is June 21, 2018. The upgraded eTime will have a fresh new look with improved security and navigation.
To help everyone get familiar with the new look and feel of eTime v8.0, all employees will be required to complete two Bridge eTime v8.0 training modules that are being created by Human Resources. The training modules will be designed to get you acquainted with the new user interface of eTime v8.0 and ADP’s security Management System, NetSecure. In the coming days/weeks, you will receive additional announcements and reminders regarding the upgrade, training, and any actions that may be required of you.
We encourage everyone to complete the training modules as soon as they become available, as this will lay the groundwork for a successful upgrade and easy transition.
Thank you.
Lorraine Karlen| The New York Public Library
