LESSONS
COLLABORATION
- I taught a lesson to all 5th grade classes about context clues using Jon Scieszka's Baloney.
-The library displayed the reading projects for Mrs. Schmidt's third grade class and Mrs. Smith's LEAP/GT students.
-I did a math/STEM holiday lesson with Mrs. Keiler's second grade class in which students were challenged to build the tallest Christmas tree out of gumdrops and toothpicks. Students collected data by measuring each tree and comparing the heights.
ADDITIONAL TASKS PERFORMED
-Our nonfiction section is almost completely weeded. Next, we will be evaluating and weeding our "Junior Nonfiction" section.
-Bluebonnet voting will take place in the library at the end of January.
