Earth Week Bookmarks

We are celebrating Earth Week at Myron J. Francis. Look at the awesome bookmarks that a 3rd grader and his Mom made for the library. Made from cereal boxes and ribbon, they are creative, colorful, and serve as a sturdy placeholder for your favorite book. They are so popular that I decided to raffle one off in each classroom so that students at all grade levels can be inspired and one lucky person per class will have a chance to take it home. Thanks Jack!

Mystery Readers Read "Everything On It"



As part of reading week, mystery readers  will read a poem over the loudspeaker each day. Classrooms who correctly guess the mystery reader will be eligible to win Shel Silverstein's recently published book, Everything On It. Students in library who are on computers this week will be exploring the Shel Silverstein's website which has a fun section for kids only - like this matching game on the left. Happy Reading Week!
