Carroll Library
Reading is In-tents!
THANK YOU!!
A huge heart-felt thank you to the entire Carroll family for supporting the fall book fair! PTA did a wonderful job decorating, setting up the fair, and volunteering. Watch Dog dads moved library shelves for the fair and returned them to their spots after the fair. National Honor Society students from Wakeland volunteered for the Camping with Clifford event, while Carroll teachers signed up to read to students. And a very special thank you to Mrs. Gentile, the PTA Book Fair Chairperson!! What an example of a community coming together!
Winter Reading
With the break right around the corner, this is the perfect time to get reading! Students in grades K-2 should check out the Texas 2x2 Reading List while students in grades 3-5 should refer to the Texas Bluebonnet Reading List. There is a new graphic novel list called The Little Maverick; it includes books for grades K-5.
Six Flags Read to Succeed Reading Program
Any student who reads (or is read to) for 6 hours and completes this reading log will earn a free ticket to Six Flags in Arlington! All reading logs are due in the library February 23, 2017 and the tickets usually arrive in mid May.
OverDrive
If you need more material to read over the break, use OverDrive to download an audio book or read an e- book from your device. OverDrive is a free app you can download from the App Store. Once you've download it, select Frisco ISD as a library and your student can log on using his/her FISD login. This will give your student access to hundreds of book for free! More information can be found on the Carroll Library Website.
Frisco Public Library may also be selected as a library on the OverDrive app. Your student will have to login with his/her FPL library card number to have access to the FPL catalog. Find out more about it here.
