Tour of Media Center

On Monday, August 13, 2018, I met with my Site Supervisor, Mrs. Patti Deep. Mrs. Deep is the Media Specialist at Telfair County Elementary School. Mrs. Deep and I discussed practicum guidelines and expectations. I also shared the School Media Website with Mrs. Deep so that she could understand the practicum tasks and activities that we are to begin working on. Mrs. Deep then gave me a tour around the Media Center.

First, Mrs. Deep explained how the books were organized within her classroom. She has rows 1-4 sectioned off for her Nonfiction books, or number books. Rows 7-11 are the fiction books, or letter books.

Then, Mrs. Deep showed me the rooms in the back of the center such as the video control room, the video production room, and the conference room. The video control room and video production room are very rarely ever used. The rooms currently store overhead projectors and out-dated video tapes. The conference room, however, is used very frequently for professional development classes, leadership meetings, and parent conferences.

Mrs. Deep then showed me the front desk where she checks out students and provides service to students for the school store.
