Books worth melting for

My versions of an Olaf bulletin board I saw on Pinterest...

You'll find him at Lincoln...

And him at Parkview!

National Library Week 2013

Happy National Library Week to you all! It was a great week here in New London celebrating all that our libraries are and can do for our teachers and students!

Students and staff were invited to tell us why the library was important to them.

This picture was taken late in the week and we had even more turned in after this! We are overflowing with love for the library!

Wednesday at Parkview was Poem in Your Pocket Day. You can read more about that HERE.

Friday all elementary students were invited to wear a readable t-shirt. Mrs. Saucerman's class had a lot of readable t-shirts!

Throughout the week, all elementary students received a free book from the library to take home and keep forever. They really enjoyed that and some of the students couldn't believe they didn't have to bring it back!

 Here Mrs. Cherf helps Mrs. Kloehn with book distribution to 4th graders.

And for a bit of fun, all of the elementary library ladies got together to celebrate "our week" over dinner!

I hope you had a wonderful week and remember that the library is a great place all year long, not just one week in April!

March Library Bulletin Board

I saw a really awesome bulletin board on Seize the Day with Second Grade.  It inspired this rainbow bulletin board.  I put this up in March, just outside my library.  I filled the empty space with book covers and the saying "Luck is finding the perfect book".

(This picture was after a little oopsie! with the background paper...)

The saying is cut from the Cricut cart Birthday Bash at 3.5".  The book covers are from recent JLG book orders.  Kids really like seeing the book covers and it sparks interest in new books.
