Kindergarten classes had a visitor today!
Margaret Clauder, a.k.a. The Bookworm, displayed her powers of ventriloquism, humor, and love of books while talking about book care this morning. The students loved her performance!
In the library, the other half of second through fifth grades are coding with LightBot Hour. They only have about fifteen minutes for the activity, and many of our students are reaching the second level in that time--forming procedural loops to use in their programming!
First grade has checkout only this week. Kindergarteners are discussing problem solving and making kind choices while listening to The Lumberjack's Beard by Duncan Beedie.
Our winter holiday books are on display! We have fiction and nonfiction books about Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Christmas, Winter Solstice, and holiday traditions around the world, as well as nonfiction books about penguins and polar bears.
Mrs. Woodul and Ms Margocs had a great time emceeing our school's multicultural event, "Passport to Sommer". Our PTA volunteers did a great job transforming the library into a display room for Europe and Africa!
Mrs. Woodul, our library assistant, is retiring at the end of the semester! Her reception will be held in the library on Tuesday, December 18th from 330p to 5p. RSVP to Ms Margocs at Christine_Margocs@roundrockisd.org if you'd like to attend.
Our Stallion Readers' Advisory and Shelf Elf clubs are meeting tomorrow, December 6th, after school--don't forget!
Very late overdue notices went out yesterday this week...but we had many, many more books that were due last week as well. Please remember to turn in all overdue books and pay fines for lost or damaged books before the winter break if you want to check out books to read over the holiday!
