The Sustainability Hub - 1 views

  •  
    When searching for books about sustainability at your school or local library, don't just stop at non-fiction! There are lots of great stories out there that relate to sustainability and the environment.
  •  
    As well as books, I also suggest including graphic novels, such as Luz Sees the Light by Claudia Davila or A World Without Fish by Mark Kurlansky.

Digital resources I'd love to have in my library - 1 views

  •  
    Although I am not currently working as a Teacher-Librarian, the libraries I have spent time in would need a significant budget upgrade to get their hands on these wonderful resources. Most do not have a single tablet or ipad for students access. But it never hurts to think big, so here is my list of dream resources....
  •  
    Like these resources. I'd also include Pixton comic creator http://www.pixton.com/uk/) to this list. You can get free single or a class subscription. Just right for a fun way to teach any topic. [I am not affiliated with pixton in any way]
