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

New books, scary books, fall books--it's what students are checking out these days!
Screenshot from a search for "scary" in our online catalog--just a few examples!

Ms Margocs is reading three different books to our K-2 crowd:

Kindergarten--is Frank still a spider if he only has seven legs?


First grade--did Square really plan a sneaky trick on Triangle?













Second grade--how does art make us feel?

It's the second week of the lesson cycle for 3-5 grades, so the other half of third and fourth are learning about using the online catalog to find good fit books, while fifth grade is reviewing genres and this year's Bluebonnet Award nominees.
Using Nearpod on the iPads to learn about our online catalog.

Fourth grade will be visiting with Donna Janell Bowman tomorrow for a writing workshop in the library!

We had another baker bring us goodies last week, using a cookbook from our library collection.  Yummy butterscotch fudge!

One of our favorite local authors, Bethany Hegedus, has written a picture book biography of Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird.  We're excited to add Ms Hegedus' book to our collection!

We are seeing more wet books in the library.  Please keep water bottles away from library books in backpacks and on desks, and make sure they are protected from rain. 

We circulated over eight thousand items in September!  That is why we are so grateful for our volunteers who help shelve our books.

Our Fall Scholastic Book Fair is less than a month away!
Hope to see you in the stacks this week in our Sommer Library.  Keep on reading!
