TERC, a non profit educational organization in Cambridge, MA, has created some wonderful activities for our librarians to use as part of their "One World, Many Stories" programming. TERC would like to share their activities and resources with any library participating in One World Many Stories. Please read the message below for more information. [cid:_2_21315E28213159DC0052908E85257849] Dear Library Colleagues, I'm writing to let you know about Mixing in Math (MiM), a set of FREE materials in English and Spanish, designed for integrating numeracy into story time, summer reading, and crafts for children and families. Through their Mixing in Math grant, I've worked with TERC staff to assist many MA librarians incorporate math skills into programs already being led. It's an appealing and engaging way to draw in new patrons, to offer them something different, and to reinforce skills children are learning in school. MiM was designed with input from hundreds of librarians from MA, CT, NY, CA, MO, and other states. MiM resources include posters, games, calendars, crafts, and projects that are easy to use and fun for adults and children. The resources combine common library themes, such as animals, food, and holidays with the math of sizes, shapes, patters, measurement. MiM was funded by the National Science Foundation, and created at TERC, a non-profit educational organization. Check the MiM website: http://mixinginmath.terc.edu to learn more and to download the materials. If you have any questions about our experience with MiM in MA, please contact me. If you'd like to reach the developers of MiM or would like to arrange for a free webinar, please contact mixinginmath at terc.edu. We encourage you to let children's librarians in your area know about Mixing in Math. You may forward this message or put a link up to the Mixing in Math site (or to the free summer reading 2011 resources http://mixinginmath.terc.edu/Themes/Stories_World2011.cfm).

ALA President Roberta Stevens is sponsoring the Why I Need My Library video contest for teens, ages 13-18. The contest asks teens to create short, original videos on why they think libraries are needed now more than ever. There are still three weeks left to enter and rich incentives for participating teens. Winning teens will select their school or public library as the recipient of cash prizes. There is a total of $20,000 at stake, with $3,000 going to each of two grand prize winners. In addition, each member of the winning group will receive a $50 gift card to an online bookseller. Looking for tips on getting teens involved? Visit http://bit.ly/dN5KBI to find a list of tips and resources on making videos. There's also a sample flier to help tell them what the contest is about, as well as videos from teens at the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library that speak directly to teens about why they should enter. As a co-chair of the Why I Need My Library taskforce, it has been exciting to see this contest come together and to know that engagement with young adult library advocates is a high priority for Roberta's presidential year. I hope you will work with teens at your library to make a video, and I look forward to seeing the video entries from your school. Thank you, Diane R.
