We are counting down to our Fall Scholastic Book Fair!
We will be open for student shopping October 27th through October 29th. The online fair opens October 26th and runs through November 8th. Find details about the fair and opening up an eWallet on our Scholastic Book Fair homepage--click here.
Read alouds this week:
PreK scholars are practicing their grumpy faces as we read The Grumpy Pets by Kristine A. Lombardi.
Kindergarten, first, and second grade classes are talking about October, Halloween, the months of the year, and personal responsibility for finding out what makes us happy as we read Gustavo, the Shy Ghost by Flavia Z. Drago. It's another Armadillo Readers' Choice nominee!
Lessons this week:
Third, fourth, and fifth grades are using what we learned about genres in our last lesson to classify our Bluebonnet Award Nominees.
We're also learning about how to track our Bluebonnet reading--there's a form on our library website under "Reading Programs"--so that scholars can vote for their favorite nominee in January. Read five to decide! Third graders who read ten books will get a surprise, as will fourth graders who read twelve and fifth graders who read fourteen nominees. Read all twenty and get a free book off of next year's Bluebonnet Nominee list!
See you in the stacks, Dillo Readers!
