It's Wednesday! What's happening in the Sommer Library?

We are down to our final lessons and checkouts for the school year! This week, our kindergarteners and second graders are getting to choose between  nonfiction and fiction for their read-aloud in the Book Nook; so far, fiction is winning out.  We are talking about kindness and forgiveness with Horrible Bear! by Ame Dyckman:

First graders will get to choose their read-aloud next week!  Third graders are reviewing the basics of internet safety before exploring the world wide web this summer.  Fourth graders are hearing about fifth grade broadcast positions, and applying if they are interested.  Fifth graders are checking out their last round of books and playing Jeopardy to review their library skills and get ready for summer reading.

All books are due back to the library by Monday, May 14th!
