I was provided a digital review copy of Benita y las criaturas nocturnas. Mariana Llanos is a Peruvian children’s author who lives in the U.S. It would be so fun to have audiences participate in the sounds of the monsters and I think this would be a great group read aloud.

Atinuke was born in Nigeria and lives in Wales.īenita y las criaturas nocturnas by Mariana Llanos, illustrated by Cocoretto

When I used the book in storytime, I gave each family copies of a few foods from the story to look for! There are also many free resources to help draw out the math concepts in the book.

Families can act out the story along with you using origami slides and small finger puppets. There’s a new, tall slide to try, and it’s intimidating for both of them, but they go down!

Cable management: A centrally located space in the back of the laptop stand for cables and cords to run through is a nice bonus that helps your workspace feel contained and clean, even when your work doesn’t seem that way.Always excited to see new books in Spanish to use for library storytime: Valiente como un león by Erika Meza Mi perro solo habla español by Andrea Cáceres Bebé va al mercado by Atinuke Benita y las criaturas nocturnas by Mariana Llanos Un regalo para Niña by Cecilia Ruiz Día de Muertos números by Duncan Tonatiuh El señor Pancho tenía un rancho by René Colato Laínez And a bonus title not shown in the video: Caminantes curiosos by Micha Archer.

Appearance: The stand shouldn’t be too ugly, since you have to look at it all the time.

You should be able to use the stand with a laptop of any size, too, though 17-inch laptops are too big for most stands.

Build quality: A stand designed to hold your expensive laptop must be sturdy, and it shouldn’t wobble or shake while you’re typing on a nearby keyboard.

Most people should get an adjustable laptop stand so that they can tweak the laptop’s height as needed, but even a non-adjustable stand is an improvement over nothing. And if you share a workstation with others, adjustability is key to making sure everyone is comfortable. If you work at a sit-stand desk, you need to be able to adjust the height of the screen to account for both your sitting and standing postures.

Adjustability: Everyone has a different body, a different laptop, and a different desk setup, so a single, fixed-height laptop stand won’t work for everyone.Then measure the height from the top of your desk to the bottom of the laptop. Height: To see how much height adjustment you might need, place your laptop on a stack of books or other objects until the top of the screen is about 1 to 2 inches above eye level.
