AndreacchiJuliaHi,
Welcome and thank you for your interest in my Exploratorium. My name is Julia Andreacchi and I am the Head of Library Resource Centre in Newmarket, Ontario Canada. I hold a B. Sci. and B. Ed. degree from the University of Toronto and consider myself a life-long learner. Recently I graduated from the University of Phoenix with a Master’s Degree in
E-Learning and Adult Education completing my program online.Instructional activities that will be displayed at the Exploratorium were developed using dollar store and thrifty finds. The Novel, “Teddy Gets Out”, by A. Greg Vaughn serves as the inspiration for the development of these activities. Activities engage students in collaboration and give them an opportunity to share and display their work. Displayed work acts as exemplars for others.
I love new ideas and feedback. Join me at http:dollardazeandthriftyfinds.blogspot.com. Each month I will post a new dollar store item. Embrace the challenge, the power of imagination and share your ideas as we dialogue about new ways to reinvent the old and new.
Reinvention works!
