About Ms. Hanes
Background
I became the Library Media Specialist at Fairmount Elementary in 2009. Before coming here, I was a Library Media Specialist at Gordon Central High School, Red Bud Elementary, and The Children's School in Atlanta, (where I was the Prekindergarten lead teacher and eventually became the librarian.) I also taught piano, and music & movement for young children for 12 years at the Georgia Academy of Music. My undergraduate degree is in Music Education and I frequently incorporate music into my instruction. My first job ever was at the Northwest Georgia Regional Library in Dalton when I was in 7th grade. I shelved books and kept them in order for $1 an hour. Consequently, I touched every book in the entire library. I brought books home by the armload. Books opened worlds to me that I wouldn't have otherwise known about, so I definitely realize how information literacy can change a child's life. |
