We're taking a break from lessons and focusing on checking out this week with first through fifth graders. This means reminders about how to use our Grab & Go Curbside Delivery service for both at-home and some classroom learners, as well as guidance in finding good-fit books in the library. It's important for students to have time to browse our collection and "peek and turn" to make decisions about what they are interested in and can truly enjoy. We'll be having more lessons about choosing good-fit books soon.
Ms Margocs has ordered more new books, and some arrived this week!
PreK is listening to a story about the sun to go along with their classroom studies. We're talking about seasons and shadows, too.
Kindergarteners are discussing managing anger in their classroom social-emotional learning, so we're reading Fergal and the Bad Temper by Robert Starling during our library time.
The biggest news this week--our Fall Scholastic Book Fair is coming soon!
It will be completely online! Books will be shipped to your home; if you spend $25 on books, shipping is free! The proceeds go towards buying books and supplies for our library. The holiday season is upon us, and books make great gifts--hint, hint! The Book Fair will be open from November 23rd (Thanksgiving Break) to December 6th. There's even a Virtual Fair for families to explore--a 360 tour of carts and book displays!
We will be devising a way to promote online teacher wishlists as well--stay tuned!
