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

 It's the second week of our regular library visits via Google Meet!  On deck this week:

PreK has been talking about community helpers in class, so Ms Margocs is reading Can I Be Your Dog? by Troy Cummings.  Arfy asks several community members to take him in, but in the end, a helpful person asks him to be her dog!

Kindergarten classes are Going on a Book Hunt--and if they are at home, they will go on a book hunt of their own!


First and second graders are going to review how to request books from the library and booktalk with Ms Margocs.

Third, fourth, and fifth graders are practicing the language of readers by reviewing book genres using a matching exercise on Schoology.  We're working together during the lesson, and they can have the opportunity to review it on their own afterwards.  We'll be using this knowledge to learn more about this year's Bluebonnet Award Nominees in a couple of weeks.

Speaking of Bluebonnet Nominees...there is a new way to track your Bluebonnet books on our library website--just fill in a Google form!  You must be logged into Chrome with your student account to access the form.

Ms Moss has been working hard to clean up our library; we are about halfway through!  We've also made a new Harry Potter section so all of our Potter fans will know where to go when we get back to in-person library visits.  Rick Riordan's books are on the other side of the shelves, for you Percy Jackson readers.

There will be big news soon about a new ebook resource coming to our library; stay tuned!
