Library Learning
1st grade- Animals Life Cycles
2nd grade- Animals That Would Make Terrible Pets
3rd grade- States- and why someone would want to vacation there
4th grade- States- and why someone would want to move there
5th grade- Inventors
All grade levels including kinder got the chance to explore and learn through creative play with some of the new library materials, received either from the KUSD Library Department or via a Donors Choose Grant I received shortly before the winter holidays. These types of activities are good for encouraging problem-solving skills, collaboration, and cooperation. Many of the students also wrote thank you notes to some of the donors for their generosity.
