Episode Synopsis
Our sixth episode of Backwards and Forwards is with guest Rodda Leonardi. Mrs. Leonardi is the librarian at Peabody Charter School in Santa Barbara, CA. Mrs. Leonardi works to foster a love of reading among her students by curating engaging books and programs, including creative initiatives like a school-wide bookmark design contest that encouraged hundreds of students to connect art with literacy. In this episode, Mrs. Leonardi discusses the role of libraries in supporting young readers and the ways librarians can spark imagination and build strong literacy foundations, and Josephine discusses the technology tools that have helped her as she developed her own reading skills.
