First Post & Counseling Library

Hi, y'all!  Thanks for coming to my blog.  I am starting my first year as a school counselor this year.  I started my education career by teaching PreK at a private school.  I moved to public school the next year and taught kindergarten for 3 years.  I wanted to teach middle school, but I realized after teaching kindergarten I had a passion for the young babies.  It seems like the beginning of the year for a counselor they spend a lot of time with these homesick little babies anyways, so it was a great experience.  Last year I taught full time and did my year long internship with our amazing school counselor.  I am so excited to begin this journey and decided to start a blog to share some original ideas I have/ learn from others and post success stories.  I will be adding blogs I am inspired by soon.  I will also be working on making this blog prettier.

The first project I undertook this summer is to create a library.  I made a list of each book that I had and the previous counselor left me on the shelf.  Then, I organized each book by subject and arranged them by grade level (to make it easier to locate books).  Later, I will add lessons that can be used with the books to keep them organized.  I plan on making the library available to teachers to borrow books on subjects they need.  I still have several series of books I need to add to the catalogue, but I am really happy with how it turned out.  I love to be super organized, so this is a great first step in that direction. 




Do any of you have a catalog for your books?  Share it here.
