When Technology Slows Down . . .

We love technology but sometimes the internet slows down and we have to be patient. This happened to a fourth grade class last week and it was lucky that everyone had a library book handy to read while the page was loading!

Book Breakfast 2014

The arrival of new books in the library is a cause for celebration! Before I lend the new books to students I like to host a book breakfast where staff can preview the books.  It's always a fun, joyful occasion for our school community. I started lending out the new books to students the same day as the breakfast and the books were soon gone from the displays! You can see the new books in our library catalog. Just click this link to see the books - there are many new books so remember to scroll through the pages.

Read Across America

We began our reading journey across America on March 7th and we're traveling quickly through all 50 states! Every Wednesday we have a special event to celebrate our participation in this fun reading incentive program. So far we've had Pajama Day and Wear Red and White Day. Still to come are Wear a Readable T-shirt Day and Mystery Reader Day. We are aiming to read across all 50 states by April 11th when we will have a celebratory closing assembly - with a surprise performance!
Here is a slide show of our activities so far . . .
