The library's cozy reading area inherited some furniture yesterday! The chairs are comfy and cleanable, and just what we need for our readers to settle in and enjoy their books.
This is a checkout week for first through fifth grades, which means they have their half hour of library time to find really good fit books and spend some time reading them. Ms Margocs catches readers in the act and is handing out Dillo Tickets; classes are working towards earning flashlight time in the library.
PreK is thinking of imaginative ways to use boxes and sticks while we read Not a Box and Not a Stick by Antoinette Portis.
Kindergarten classes are reminded that even the littlest things matter--and that all students matter, too.
There are two important library dates coming up:
January 24: Bluebonnet Voting Week in the library! Ms Margocs will be sorting the reading log to see who has read at least five of the Bluebonnet Nominees and invite them to vote for their favorite.
February 7: Deadline for Schlitterbahn Waves of Pages reading program. Return your logs to your teachers on February 8th-11th, to get your information entered for a free ticket to Schlitterbahn!
We are gearing up for a focus on Black History by displaying nonfiction books on the topic and fiction books featuring Black authors and illustrators. Here's a sample of what we've got in our collection:
See you in the stacks, Dillo Readers!
