Welcome to a new year at LM!! I am so excited to be a teacher-librarian and start off this new adventure in my career at this school. We've been very busy getting the library ready for the students. In some ways, I like to call it our "EXTREME LIBRARY MAKEOVER". I plan to post pictures as soon as our last few pieces of funky furniture arrive...(if I can wait that long!).
We are hoping to make a library more of a learning commons rather than just the place to find books and talk quietly! In fact my slogan for our library is LOL @LindenMeadowsLibrary, where the LOL means Learn(and even Laugh) out loud!
Our new comfy reading space is also home to a fun puzzle that we'd love for you to visit and help put together! We want to make our library both welcoming and fun for all.
We will be starting our regular schedule of LIBRARY CLASSES on Wednesday of this week (Sept.16th) and students should be able to begin taking out library books as well as spending time with me. As you enter the library for class, the K-4 students will move to the cozy meeting space I've created at the back of the library, while the 5-8 students can have a seat at the tables in the library (4 students per table PLEASE!).
We had a wonderful assembly on Friday to welcome all the students back to LM! Unfortunately we had some technical difficulties for the grade 5-8 assembly and they were unable to view the movie of our Flag Raising ceremony. I have embedded the video into this blog so you can view it at your pleasure.
See you in the library!
