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!

The 2016 Stillwater Book Fair is here!

Beef-up your home library. Find some great holiday gifts. Decorate your room with posters. Enter to win a raffle prize. Donate an item to your favorite classroom teacher.  The Scholastic flyer (not used to place orders) is coming home this week in Kid Mail, so you can preview this year’s selection.  Student wish-lists will be coming home next week.

 

We have three great ways to participate and promote reading:

Happy November 1st

Happy November 1st, friends!  As Ms. Bigham, the Tolt librarian, says…  it is time to  “Gobble Up Some Good Reads in November!”

In October, 3-5 grade students coming to the library have been working hard on learning the research process and seeking out information for their nonfiction book project. The younger students have been practicing library procedures and focusing on browsing for great books.
Now that it is November, the research project and book enjoyment continues.  Please keep reminding your students to come into the library during their lunch recess to check in, out and renew books. With Thanksgiving Break on the way, encourage your student to stock up on books for the holiday!
The Stillwater Book Fair is getting closer!
Tuesday, November 15th is the first day of our Scholastic Book Fair! We will be open during non-instructional hours for student purchases, and during conference times as well. Please stop by the book fair – your support is greatly appreciated as it helps us purchase books for the library and teachers. Also, we are still looking for some awesome volunteers to help out during afternoon shifts, especially on Tuesday, Nov. 22nd. Please consider signing up here at our Sign Up Genius page.
