This Week in the Library: Nov. 23-24

The book fair is over!  The carts and boxes went back to Scholastic early Monday morning.  Because of the 2-day school week, only 7 classes came to the library for class (3 others came for book selection only).  Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Note: The online book fair continues until Sunday, Nov. 29.  See the post below for more information and a link to the online fair!

Primary Classes (Morehouse, Widener, Gordon, Bonnell, Gregerson, Keating):  We began reading our 2016 Washington Children's Choice Picture Book Nominees.  This week we read "At the Old Haunted House" by Helen Ketteman, illustrated by Nate Wragg.  It is based on "Over in the Meadow" (link is to song version on YouTube and may be blocked within the school).  We discovered it is a counting book and a rhyming book.  Vocabulary words: draft, spells, vault, bayed, and haunt.

Professional: Wrapped up the book fair accounting, found books for an inter-library loan with Alderwood MS, prepared WCCPBA books for the primary teachers to read in class, checked in a mountain of books!
