Hey all – it’s that time again!

The Scholastic Book Fair is right around the corner, November 13-21st! We NEED your help to make this event successful! If you are interested in helping out during the Book Fair, please sign up for a time slot(s) by clicking HERE!

The students LOVE the Scholastic Book Fair and proceeds from this event help provide great titles for our Stillwater Library and individual classrooms! Thank you in advance! Get a head start on your Christmas shopping at the Book Fair!

Did I mention that for every shift you volunteer, you get entered into a drawing for FREE BOOKS?!?!?  So, go to the sign up site http://www.signupgenius.com/go/8050e4fa8a92ea64-scholastic1 to see what shifts are available.

Congratulations 5th Grade Library Helpers!

 

 

Over the last two weeks, interested 5th grade students “applied” for the position of Library Aide during their class time.  These jobs are very important, as they involve helping circulate the materials, keeping our library neat and clean, and helping adults and students find books.

Congratulations to Erin, Angie, Zoe, Addison, Tyler, Emma, Kassie, Valeria and Natalie!

Thank you to ALL of the students who applied!

The “Battle of the Books” has Begun!

Our first meeting was Wednesday, October 11th.  We had a snack, talked about what “Battle of the Books” is, skimmed through the book “Lincoln And Kennedy: A Pair to Compare” by Gene Barretta, and selected a book to checkout and read before our next meeting. We will each read all 10 of the books on the Battle of the Books short 10. 3-5-1mwva8v list.

If your 3rd, 4th or 5th grader is still interested in joining BotB, a blue parent permission form (which your student can get from me in the Library) needs to be completed and turned in before coming to the next meeting, on Wednesday, October 25th.

I’ve listed all of our meeting dates below, for your reference.

Meetings start at 3:45 and end at 4:30 pm.

Students should pack a light snack.

Please plan on picking up your student from the second parent pick up loop (between the stop sign and the portables) at 4:30 pm.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,
