End of November
While our world still may not be back to normal, I still have many things to be thankful about here in the JK Library. I am thankful that I get to bring the joy of reading into the lives of my students. I am thankful for the bright smiles and virtual hugs I receive. I am thankful that I am surrounded by amazing teachers who give all they can for students and finally, I am thankful for all of my JK family.
Library Lessons
Voting
Students brainstormed what qualities would make a good president. After reading Duck for President and My Teacher for President, students voted who they thought would make a better president. This race was too close to call!
Good Character
Students learned about characteristics this month. After listening to the book, they had to decide what characteristics Sofia had that would make her a good president. We all came to the conclusion that being kind, helpful, smart and persistent would make you a good person as well as a good president!
Veterans Day
After learning about Veterans Day, we had our own Library Boot Camp.
Makerspace is Back!
Students enjoyed created planes with LEGOS.
5th Grade Research
Librarian to go please! I loved going to 5th grade classes to help them with their research projects.
Sora
Don't forget that you can get e-book to read any time of the day with Sora. The app is located on launchpad.
Turkey Fun
Turkey Trouble
Virtual students enjoyed helping their turkey disguise itself to keep from being eaten!
Turkey Rhymes
We had so much fun singing words that rhyme with thanksgiving food! Please? Peas Perky? Turkey Parrots? Carrots
Gratitude Circle
So many things to be grateful for at JK. Each student was given a letter and had to come up with something they were grateful for that started with their letters. Some of my favorites: H-Hope, K-Kindness, M-Moms, T-Tacos and the best one....L-Library!
