Our Kinder and first graders have been learning about QR codes!

What is a QR code? How can it be useful?

We have QR codes posted around our library which can provide more information about a topic or book. QR codes are used often in books, advertising, and now education. Our students are taking turns using an app on our iPads to scan QR codes and explore where they take you. We have talked about QR codes being shortcuts to information. We learned about book trailers, which are mini movies about a book that help you think about if you might want to read that book.

Can you think of a place you may have seen a QR code recently?  

Happy scanning!
