"Today a Reader...Tomorrow a Leader" Margaret Fuller
Welcome Back to the Library!
The Book Fairy visits with Kinder, 1st, and 2nd graders!
Rotation #2: We introduced this year's Texas 2x2 books and discussed the Battle of the Texas 2x2 contest. We then read the first book in the contest, School's First Day of School.
The Library Goddess visits with 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders!
Rotation #2: We introduced this year's Texas Bluebonnet Books and discussed the Battle of the Bluebonnets contest. We then read one of the books, and learned how to participate in the contest.
Digital Citizenship Lessons in the Library
Rotation #3: By Friday, September 22nd, all grade levels will have discussed safety and how to be a good Digital Citizen as part of our lesson in the library. (See the poster below.) We will have reviewed that these expectations are non-negotiable, and must be adhered to at all times when on district or personal devices at school.
1) Please show your students the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) Guideline video and discuss these expectations with your students. (You can find the videos here.)
2) Sign off on the Compliance Verification Form that all of your students have seen the video and understand these expectations. (You can find the Verification Form here.) Click the link for "Bagdad Elementary" and fill out the information on the short form.
3) If you would like a copy of this poster to remind students what the expectations are, please email me and let me know. I will place it in your box so that you can display it in your classroom.
Please have steps #1 and #2 completed by Friday, October 6th. Thank you!
