S’more Good Books

11/23/2017

 
There's s'more good books added to our collection!  This year we featured our 2018 Illinois Nominees a little differently.  We moved the tables and set up a "campfire"  so that students could have the time and space to examine each nominee.  These nominated titles are unique and great reads so I'm not surprised that these new titles flew off the shelves!

Thank you Veterans

11/23/2017

 
Third grade students listened to "America's White Table" to help understand the significance of this holiday.  This heart warming and thought provoking book and really illustrates what a veteran does and sacrifices for our freedom.   Thank you veterans of all you have done and continue to do for me.

Happy Holidays

11/23/2017

 
For many of us, the holidays mean family, fun, and traveling. Probably quite a bit of stress for the parents too! MyON is great for traveling or when things get really busy. MyON provides readers with almost 6,000 digital books. Use the online version if you have internet access or download up to 20 titles on a tablet to read whenever there isn’t internet. MyON also has the option to have any book read aloud which makes it great for any reader.

Gordon Korman visits us!

Have you read any of Gordon Korman's books recently?  They are amazing!  

Ozobots

11/9/2017

 
The library was filled with excitement as second grade students explored ozobots.  These tiny robots read block code and color patterns.  Students applied their knowledge of maps and sequencing to code their ozobot to go from place to place on their drawn map.  We returned these amazing robots to the Science Center but are looking forward to when the return next.  

Fire Safety

11/9/2017

 
During the month of October, Kindergarten students learned about fire safety.  Students listened to a variety of books, researched firefighters on Pebble Go, and practiced going online to play a variety of fire safety games.  Our focus during this unit was the importance of having an escape plan and a family meet up place.  We also learned how the when to stop, drop, and roll and why we need to "get out and stay out."

    I'm a working parent.  I'd love the opportunity to peek into my children's learning community but time and schedules don't always allow that.  I'm hoping this blog will allow you to peek in our LRC so that you get a glimpse of all the fun and learning taking place.
