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

Hello, Dillo Readers!  It is an "off-week" for most of our library visits--no read-alouds or lessons for first through fifth grades, just more time to ask for and check out books.   

Ms Margocs and Ms Moss are helping our library patrons learn how to ask for topics they are interested in and find them on our shelves.  We also remind them about how to find good-fit books:  look at the cover, read the jacket blurb, peek-and-turn at the first few pages to see if it's a book you will enjoy.  It's important for our students to know themselves as readers, and empowering for them to make those choices! 

On display this coming month:  princess and dragon books, poetry, spring holidays...and keep an eye out for some brand new books coming to our library!  Thank you, Ms Moss, for the springtime decorations!

Read-alouds for our littlest learners this week:

PreK is singing along with Ms Margocs as we read books that have favorite songs in them, as well as a new song to a familiar tune:

Kindergarten readers are watching Daddy Lion try to do battle with the dandelion in his lawn--until his daughter makes the yellow weed her best friend.

Grab & Go Curbside Book Delivery is continuing every Tuesday from 130p to 230p, and Thursdays from 5p to 630p.  Students who are learning at home can order library books for pickup following the directions on the library website: click here.

Overdue notices have been passed out to students at school; home learners will be receiving reminders in Meets and an email asking them to check their accounts from home so they can see what they still have out.  Books can be returned at any time in the dark green return bin (a large trash bin) on the portable side of the building during the school day or during Grab & Go Curbside Service.  They can also be dropped off at the school office.

Attention AME second through fifth graders:  we still have openings in the afterschool Bluebonnet Book Read-Aloud Club!  We are currently reading The Canyon's Edge by Dusti Bowling, which is also on the Lone Star List for middle school.  Interested?  Email Ms Margocs at Christine_Margocs@roundrockisd.org.  

Dillo Readers, we only have a couple of lessons and a handful of read-alouds before our school year wraps up!  The last curbside service will be April 29th; all books are due back no later than May 14th.  Until then--keep reading, Dillos!
