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

We hope you enjoyed your four-day weekend, Dillo student readers!  Ms Margocs attended some breakout sessions on equity and Google certification and presented sessions on using databases and MackinVIA with your teachers.  We also got some more cleaning done in the library, making sure materials for classroom use were up-to-date.  (Ms Margocs spent some time looking at pictures in the old AME yearbooks--she couldn't help herself!)

Seasonal books are on display!  

Whether you are learning at home or at school, you can request books online.  Directions can be found on our Curbside Service page of the library website.

Ms Margocs also completed her Pear Deck coach training yesterday!  This week, third through fifth graders will be introduced to some of our Bluebonnet Award Nominees and practice their genre-identifying skills in a Pear Deck session.


PreK students are studying patterns in language, so we're reading Have You Seen My Cat? by Eric Carle.

Kindergarten classes are learning some facts from Skulls!, an Armadillo Readers' Choice book by Blair Thornburgh, illustrated by Scott Campbell.

First and second graders are booktalking this week.  Ms Margocs is highlighting some of those seasonal books on display, making sure that everyone has something to read!

Our library schedule will be changing with the addition of more students returning to campus next week.  We will have a hand sanitizing station at the entrance to the library, and distancing and cleaning protocols will remain in place as we move forward.  Stay tuned for more information on the schedule.

Hope to see you at Grab & Go Curbside Book Delivery tomorrow from 5p to 630p!
