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

Our very own KSTAR Broadcast Teams went on a field trip to Google and KXAN last week!

We are back to lessons and read-alouds in our library--or in the classroom, when the library is being used for testing.  

Today, we had library in the lobby; Ms Margocs visited the classrooms of our regular Wednesday visitors.

Lessons this week:

Kindergarteners and first graders are discussing three Depth and Complexity icons--Big Idea, Rules, and Over Time-- after hearing Hector the Collector by Emily Beeny, illustrated by Stephanie Graegin.  It's a Texas 2x2 book recommendation.

Second graders are catching up on La Princesa and the Pea, a 2x2 and RRISD Armadillo book:

Third graders are exploring creative apps on the iPads for future project use.  

Fourth and fifth grades are writing emails to their teachers using proper letter format; fourth grade is including a reading response, and fifth grade is incorporating other subject areas.

On Monday, PJ Hoover will be visiting our second and third graders in the morning to discuss fiction versus nonfiction and her new "Choose Your Own Adventure" style books!

Spring Break is coming soon; make sure your overdues are turned in and bills are paid so you can check out books for the break!
