Happy Autumn Everyone!
What a great start to the school year we’ve had. All classes
are right back into the swing of things and even our newest Kindergarten
friends are coming to library class and borrowing books like pros. We’ve done
all of our “Backpack of Doom” lessons and everyone knows to treat their books
“like a baby”. (Ask your student about our book in a diaper.)
October is “Pick a Reading Partner” (PARP) month. The PTA has
set up so many fun activities to encourage everyone to read a little bit more
this month. On Friday October 25th the PTA is bringing
author/illustrator Troy Cummings to Stonehedge! He’s the creator of the wildly
popular “Notebook of Doom” series as well as numerous picture books. He’ll talk
to our students about the importance of reading as well as his artistic process.
In honor of PARP we will have two Open Library Nights this
month: Monday October 7th and Thursday October 24th. The
library will be open for browsing, quiet reading and book check out from
6:30-7:30. It’s a great opportunity to promote that extra reading time. We hope
to see you there!!!
Don’t forget to
READ4FUN!
