Busy Busy February!

February has been a wild month in the library!

This week the Scholastic Book Fair is being held in the library, and the students have been voting on their choices for the Monarch Book Awards in the classrooms with me. The kids are drawing some beautiful illustrations of the books they've heard.

2nd graders have wrapped up their fairy tale unit, and they are already moving on to new genres. I booktalked biographies with Mrs. Hammel's class, and mystery booktalks are coming up next week!

The IL-TCE conference is also coming up next week. This will be the first year I will attend this exciting technology conference. I can't wait to learn about podcasting and use my new skills with the kids.

Then on to March (already!) where the 2nd graders will begin to learn to search for books using the library's online catalog!
