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

Our library was THE popular venue on Monday!

After broadcast, we started with the fourth and fifth grade spelling bee rounds.  Over twenty students from each grade competed for ten final slots.  Good luck to the twenty total spellers moving on to our campus spelling bee in November!

Library set up to host preliminary spelling bee rounds

The afternoon brought fifth grade to the library to present their PBL on the American colonies.  Their task was to convince fourth graders to settle in their colony, using dioramas, persuasive speech...one group even had a song!

Ms Margocs met with her PTA Library Support team to discuss decorations for our upcoming book fair.  Less than two weeks to go before students and parents will get to shop in our Enchanted Forest of books!

Ms Margocs has her gnome hat ready!

Our Coins for Coats drive starts TODAY, and lasts through Friday.  Your spare change can go far in helping Round Rock ISD students stay warm this winter!  The K-2 class and 3-5 class with the biggest donation amounts will win a class set of mochi squishies!

With our wet weather, we are seeing more wet books.  Please protect your books in your backpack from rain and water bottles; placing them in a large plastic bag helps.

Lessons this week:

Kindergarten through second grade students are listening to The Bad Seed by Jory John and discussing empathy and emotion management, two of our social-emotional learning concepts.

Third through fifth grades are wrapping up our district technology survey.

And we have a few new books in the library!

Keep on reading; see you in the stacks!
