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

We had a special visitor in the library on Monday!


Donna Janell Bowman, author of Bluebonnet Award Nominee Step Right Up and Abraham Lincoln's Dueling Words, met with our fourth grade classes to talk and teach about writing!  



Students made lists of interesting verbs, adjectives, and details to expand on scenes in their own work.  They were eager to share their stories back in their classrooms!




It's read-aloud time in The Book Nook this week for kindergarten, second grade...AND third, fourth, and fifth grades!  Our older students frequently ask about having read-alouds in our story area again, so Ms Margocs is sharing two of her favorite books about Thanksgiving this week:


We have two celebrations coming up in December:
Our wonderful library assistant, Mrs. Woodul, is retiring at the end of the semester!  She has worked in Round Rock ISD for 23 years, and is ready to enjoy more time at home with family and friends.  We will be celebrating her wonderful contributions to Sommer and Forest North elementary schools with a reception on December 18th from 330p to 5p.  Please RSVP to Ms Margocs at Christine_Margocs@roundrockisd.org if you wish to attend.

Library volunteers, please keep an eye out for your invitation to our Library Volunteer Appreciation Reception on December 19th.  We provide the snacks and treats--no shelving required!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Break next week!
