@your School Library
August 2018
WELCOME BACK EVERYONE....
***Remember, I will be scheduling your class for orientations to go over all the library policies and procedures. Kinder will come for 5 orientations. 1st grade will come for 3 orientations, 2nd grade will come for 2 orientations and 3-5 will come for 1 orientation class. If you feel like your class needs more classes, we will schedule more.
We will also be scheduling your weekly book exchange time for the year.
After all of the classes have completed orientations, your class may begin coming at your weekly scheduled time.
Thank you for your patience during orientations!
I am here to help serve you and the students. Do not hesitate to reach out and ask me about anything. If I don’t know the answer to your question, I’m very resourceful and, rest assured, I will find out the answer!
I cannot wait to begin collaborating with you! Please let me know when you would like to begin “Research Bootcamp”, a poetry lesson, or any other literacy concept!

Giddings, Texas will be on literary fire during the 14th and 15th of September! "Word wranglers" will use their words to tell stories, recite poetry and relay ideas.

This happens to be a wonderful website for the lower grades that offers literacy games and more. This would be great in a station or for an extension activity for those littles that finish before everyone else. Take a look and see if you can use it in your classroom:
