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

 Read-alouds and our first checkout-only classes are happening this week!

PreK students are pausing to listen as we read The Listening Walk by Paul Showers, illustrated by Aliki.  In the library, we can hear quiet music, the air conditioner, and our bodies wiggling on the bleachers of the Story Castle.

Kindergarten students are thinking about their favorite day of the year as we read our first Armadillo Readers' Choice book together, Our Favorite Day of the Year by A. E. Ali. 
We are talking about the feelings we had on our first day of school, and what upcoming holidays we're looking forward to.  Happy New Year to our Dillos celebrating Rosh Hashanah this week!

Our first through fifth graders are spending their half-hour library visit looking for good-fit books and taking the time to read them.  Ms Margocs hopes to get some reading done with them this week, too.

You may get a notice from your teachers that your library time has changed.  We are working on making sure that everyone has a chance to come to the library every week with their class.  

Parents, please ask your students about the books they check out!  Read and/or discuss them together.  Please have a designated spot in your house for your library books so they don't get lost, or have your child return them to their backpacks each night.  Our PreK through first grades have a large plastic bag to store their books in, to keep them clean and dry.

It may still be in the nineties outside, but Ms Margocs is dreaming of cooler weather--so we have some of our Fall books on display!




Keep on reading, Dillos!
