Learning in library

All students visit the library every week to participate in a literacy lesson and check-out new books. Each week students are exposed to different genres of literature through read-alouds.  Students in kindergarten may check out one book each week.  Students in 1st and 2nd grade may check out two books each week.  Students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade are able to check out three books each week.  Student work is displayed throughout the building to help create a welcoming environment.
