SRE Library Media Notes
January 2017
Ahoy! Just a few tidbits to keep you in the know.
The Library Media schedule is changing for 3rd quarter. The Media Center sign-up has been updated to reflect the changes. There are less open slots, however, we are creating a Digital Deck 2.0 sign-up to allow for more available open collaborative spaces.
Kindergarten and 1st Grades
K/1st Grades - We will need to discuss the our options for checking out books. There are fifth grade media helpers in the mornings. Parent volunteers can bring small groups. Whole classes can come for checkout. These are a few ideas.
2nd and 3rd Grades
2nd Grade - Your small groups with parent volunteers may want to use the Digital Deck or Digital Deck 2.0 as I will have classes using the Library Media zones during the time your groups have been visiting the library. Remember that I will see your classes for the remainder of the year. Please let me know if you would like for me to work with you on lessons or projects.
3rd Grade - I will also see your classes for the remainder of the school year. As previously mentioned, please let me know if you would like to collaborate on lessons or projects.
4th & 5th Grades
4th Grade - Please continue to send your students for morning checkout. Whole class checkout is also an option. We should continue to work on collaborative projects during the flex times if your schedules permit. I will see your classes for media special during the 4th quarter.
5th Grade - I will see your classes for media special during 3rd quarter. Please let me know if there is anything in particular that you want me to cover with your students.
Thank you for your continued support of our Scotts Ridge School Library Media Center!
Library Media Happenings
Students will have an opportunity to participate in the North Carolina Children’s Book Award during Library Media classes. Kindergarten, 1st and 4th grade - please let me know if you would like a list of the nominated titles.
Don Tate is our visiting author and will be here on Feb. 28th. The schedule for his performance and flyers for book pre-orders are forthcoming.
I’m in the planning stages of a “Books We Love” display. If you are willing to do a book “shelfie” featuring your favorite book (kidlit), please let me know.
