Media Center

7M0A6639-Edit.jpg

Bumpy, but forward-moving. That is how I would describe the rollout of a remodel to our Library Media Center, which began in mid-January. As the school´s new Media Specialist, my creativity and tech skills reign high, but my Spanish and Nica business skills come in low. Thank goodness for Google translate and a kind head librarian to help with the barriers. Exciting things to come! Stay tuned for developments, it is sure to be a showstopper once rolled out!

What our Media Center is all about

 

Lincoln has invested in redesigning our traditional library into a Media Center that focuses on providing a space for students´ interactive curricula, collaborative assignments, technology, and media content production classrooms for community engagement. Our remodel includes dividing the library into 5 zones. 

 

  1. The Kidz Zone

  2. The Recording Studio

  3. The MS/HS Zone

  4. The Makerspace

  5. A Multipurpose Room

 

The Multipurpose and MS/HS Zone are simple, yet functional spaces reserved for our older students. They were created primarily for reading, collaboration, and film studies. Students can book the multipurpose room for private use to practice presentations, study groups, and the like. 

 

The Kidz Zone was designed to spark imagination and joy for reading for our pre-k and elementary students. And finally, the Makerspace Zone includes a wide array of STEM projects that ignite creativity and problem-solving skills.
