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

Our Spring Scholastic Book Fair starts NEXT WEEK!

There will be lots of popular titles for all ages, as well as posters, craft kits, and journals!  Proceeds from the fair help purchase supplies for the library and our Bluebonnet Breakfast, pay for author visits and professional development, and books for our students!  

Want to have fun "playing store" and help out with the fair?  Sign up here!  

There was testing going on in the library on Tuesday, so we had lessons in the classrooms and library in the lobby!  It's fun to see classes as they pass by on their way to specials and lunch.

Read-alouds/ lessons this week:

Kindergarten is exploring the Depth and Complexity icon of unanswered questions as we read A Hungry Lion or a Dwindling Assortment of Animals by Lucy Ruth Cummins.  We have a lot of questions about this story!

First graders have checkout only this week.  The other half of second grade is exploring the life of astronaut Mae Jemison and the racial/ gender barriers of the 1960s through Mae Among the Stars by Roda Ahmed.  We are using our Depth and Complexity icons of "multiple perspectives" and "over time" with this book.

The second half of third through fifth grades are participating in the district student climate survey.  Our Bluebonnet Award Nominee readers from these grades are currently voting for their favorite book from the list; we'll announce our grade level and campus winners next Wednesday!

See you at the book fair next week!
