Recommendations from Past Participants"Pat is the librarian's librarian. The workshops she presents are exceptional and so thorough. Her many talents shine in each topic she covers. There are many make and take opportunities, time for questions and sharings, plus complete and user-friendly handouts. Pat's knowledge ranges from puppetry and storytelling ideas, to curriculum based activities, to incorporating technology into lessons. Take advantage of any presentations you can attend. It will be worth more that the price you pay!" Kathy Loper, Librarian "Pat Miller is known for her well-planned and executed presentations full of practical and proven library and curriculum ideas and lessons. Pat is enthusiastic, engaging, and knowledgeable. Her 30+ years in the classroom and library provide her with valuable wisdom which she translates into methods, tactics, strategies, and creative adaptable applications not only for the library, but for many different content areas in the classroom. You leave Pat's sessions with a wealth of information and renewed fervor for engaging students!" Julie Bruner Cowan "Pat has presented in our district several times. She is a favorite among the elementary librarians in the district. Because she is an "actual, working" librarian, it is easy for the librarians to identify with her. She always has fresh ideas and is right on top of the newest trends. Pat has more applications in the use of books than a librarian could possibly use in one school year." "Whenever I say that Pat Miller is coming to present, the librarians are excited about her coming and want to know what book they will get. Pat's books are always a hit and so very useable." Kay McBride "As a professional, Pat Miller epitomizes the terms master teacher, acclaimed author, and passionate inservice presenter. She is an inspiration to her professional peers and a genuine treasure for the children who have her as a librarian." Aileen Kirkham, Librarian "If you ever get a chance to hear Pat Miller, don't miss the opportunity. I have heard Pat numerous times at various workshops and conferences and I always leave with a lot of activities that I can use right away in my library. Her Stretchy Library Lesson books are a MUST HAVE for all elementary librarians. Each year she comes out with more and more of them! These books have great directions that are easy to follow and very well planned. You can also find many examples of her lessons in the Library Sparks magazine. I can't wait to see what she writes next!" Donna L. Sparks, Librarian |
