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

THANK YOU for your donations to our annual Coins for Coats fundraiser!

Our school raised over $1220 to help buy coats for students in need right here in Round Rock ISD. Mrs. Baker's class in K-2 and Mrs. Knicky's class in 3-5 were our top contributors!  They received their prize of mini squishies yesterday.

In other news...our book fair arrived yesterday!
We will set it up on Monday.  Teacher preview is Monday after school; K-2 student preview is on Tuesday, and we will open for shopping after school that day!  If you would like to volunteer, please click here

Here are our shopping hours next week:
October 30th, Tuesday:  230p-430p
October 31st, Wednesday:  715a-415p
November 1st, Thursday:  715a-415p
November 2nd, Friday:  715a-615p (PTA movie night!)

Library read-alouds and lessons this week:

Kindergarten classes are listening to the nonfiction Baby Penguin's First Waddles, aligned with their animal study unit: 
First grade classes have a checkout week.

Second grade is finishing up The Bad Seed, discussing emotion management and empathy.

Third through fifth grades are taking a tour of our nonfiction shelves to become more independent in their use of the library.

Please note:  the library is closed this Thursday and Friday for hearing and vision screenings.  Ms Margocs will be doing read-alouds and lessons in the classrooms for those that are missing library time.  We will have library in the lobby those days for those who need to return and check out books.

Hope to see you at our book fair next week!
