March 7th
Scholastic Spring Book Fair
Thank you to everyone who shopped, let your kiddos shop, and supported the book fair! We did awesome and earned just over $3000 to spend on new books for the library. I'm looking for non-fiction requests. It there a topic you or your students would like to see more of in the library? I am limited by ordering from the Scholastic Dollars catalog/website. If you would like to create a wish list for me to look at on the site, please let me know by March 10th, and I will grant you access. Just remember that not all wishes come true. ;)

I'm running for President Elect of Ice Cold. It would be awesome to have some Tibbott Support during the elections that will be held during the conference. :)
Pebble Go and Pebble Next Databases
I have a trial passwords for Pebble Go and Pebble Go Next databases that will give you full access to all of the databases on these two sites until April 15th. I'd love some feedback on Pebble Go Next, it is the next level up from Pebble Go.

Multicultural Fair Green Screen Videos
I will begin recording videos for MCF the week of April 17th. I want to be done recording on May 5th so all of the videos will be ready to go when classes start traveling. I'm very excited because Mrs. Wilson and I wrote a grant to get a REAL Green screen, a tripod (so my arm will stop falling asleep during recording), and a microphone so you can ACTUALLY hear the kiddos! I'm excited to use the new equipment for the videos this year! Need some inspiration? Click on the link - it will take you to the playlist that includes all of the videos that were recorded last year. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFQwJxnRen6RwShxa3-G_GYbgQEUqTZfv
The JRT Staff LOVES to READ
Thank you to everyone who decorated a heart that I used for my February display in the library. The students LOVED checking out books that the staff at JRT LOVE! Click on the link to watch a very short video of the kiddos checking out the books during the month of February. https://animoto.com/play/tJm75EAdFpWON8dJuAQS1A
