Connecting in the library to gr 2 Forces & Motion with a reading of Egg Drop and some amazing designing & creating of our projects. So much thinking! So much fun! So much (good) chaos! Launching on Monday!

Taking a break from tech activities in library and rediscovering the lovely art of browsing. On the hunt for books with first lines that grab us and trying new things.

Our library hosted an Ann Cleeves ‘Shetlands’ murder mystery evening for parents and staff, & it was the best idea ever!!! Teacher actors, terrible Scottish accents, & my husband even made fake CDs for his character. What a way to (re) build community. 💕

Super excited to be welcoming Matt Smith @SmithvsSmith to ISP next week. Our graphic novel lovers are going to enjoy learning how to draw and make comics!

Our new(ish) Library Apprentices have reached their absolute dream—and why they asked to start the group—checking books in and out!! They did a great job, albeit with some major hovering from me for their first time. 😂

What a great way to kick off the week with @SmithvsSmith and a gathering to get to know him before launching into some serious comic writing. So engaging for kids! Loved every minute of it and can’t wait for more tomorrow!

I often remind myself that the library is different things for different kids. This sweet 1st grader has rarely taken a book home all year but she writes a book (or 3!!) EVERY SINGLE TIME! The books used to be in Russian but they have switched to English recently. So awesome!

Celebration of those who read 5 or more of the Iris Award books for elementary. Eating pizza, chatting about how we would rate each book and then a very exciting Kahoot made by Helle Kirstein and the Iris team. So much fun!

Forever in love with how a book tasting brings us together and adds something special. This time, we dug into books from their own classroom library. Kids reading and calling out, “These croissants are so buttery! 😂

This year’s Book Besties group is working on a new logo. They were adamant it must consist of a moon, the words Book Besties and three animals covered by a blanket. Kids are so fabulous! 🙂 Our goal is to laser cut earrings, a necklace charm and keychains with the logo.
