Name the Bearded Dragon
I was awarded a Pets In the Classroom Grant to purchase a Bearded Dragon for the JRT Library. I'm so EXCITED. I'm running a naming contest for the Dragon. Click on the link to put in your name nomination. It must be a name of a character from a book. Thanks for participating! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1EOGyfiymKt8MJgRH_luoiiWkb31jbgEw0PWGlN92ncg/viewform?usp=send_form
Guess The Reader
I would like to do a library display where the kiddos will guess who is holding each book. Each person that participates holds up their favorite book in front of their face and the students guess who is holding the book. If you would like to participate, let me know so we can arrange a time for you to have your picture taken when the kiddos aren't around. If you have the book, please bring it with you when I take your picture. If you don't have a copy of your favorite book, please email me so I can get a copy of your favorite. This is for all Tibbott Staff, not just the teachers. Everyone who participates will be entered into a raffle to win a $10 book fair gift certificate for the Fall Book Fair.
Mural in the Library
I was awarded a grant to hire Kevin Luthardt to do a mural in the JRT Library. He is an author and illustrator of many great books for children. In addition, he painted the mural in the library at Independence School in the Valley View School District. I'm really excited about changing the "Tiger Wall" in the library. But more what I'm most excited about is that he will be working in the library on and off for about 3 weeks during the month of October. The students and staff will be able to watch the process and be able to interact with a real life illustrator! You can click the link to learn more about Kevin. http://www.kevinluthardt.com
