Thankful for our Books!

We are thankful for so many great books in our Library. I am thankful for those kids (almost all of our students) who take such good care of our books.

We are learning about Tall Tales in the Library this month. We've learned about Pecos Bill and Davy Crockett and how they could do things bigger and better than anyone else. We plan to write our own tall tale soon.

My classes of the month for October were Ms. Quinton, Ms. Chambliss, Ms. Kilgore. I chose my classes of the month based on how well they cleaned up the Library when it was time to leave. This month I'm looking for quiet voices during check-out time.

Fall In the Library!!

Welcome back to a great school year. Hard to believe it's already October. We've been very busy in the Library learning procedures, book care and a ton of Library Vocabulary. We've also read some really great books.

Thanks to all for supporting the Book Fair. We made over $1500 for the Library and the kids had a great time looking at all the neat books.

Last Week of School

Hope everyone has a safe and exciting summer. See you in August.

Young Author's Conference

Shane and Tammy Carter Bronson visited Prairie Grove Primary to share their books, Tiny Snail, Polliwog, and The Kaleidonotes and the Mixed-Up Orchestra, with us. They did a great job and we enjoyed their visit. Ms. Carney was Tammy Carter Bronson's first grade teacher and Ms. Bronson credits Ms. Carney for teaching her to read and eventually become an author.

Mega Fun & Field Day

We had a great time at Mega Fun and Field Day. I'm getting ready for the dunk tank.

BookFair

Thanks to everyone for supporting the Book Fair. We had the MOST successful Fair ever and raised over $1600 for the Library. We also were able to purchase a computer program called BookFlix from Scholastic with Bonus Points earned during the BookFair. Teachers will be able to use BookFlix in their classrooms and in small groups.
