Bk 2 of #GRA2019 by Yuyi Morales. We are noticing common themes while we learn about Mexican culture. Gr2 S created a skeleton and sombrero. She thought the ending meant that both Frida & Yuyi needed art in their lives like some of us need air & water! Well said!

This friend couldn't wait to get his new library card after our HPL presentation! How cute is it that he was showing it off at school??? 🥰📚💳 #HPLibrary #librarylove

Wow Mount Albion School is looking purple!!! Don’t forget to wear your purple tomorrow as we recognize that every child has a right to safety and well-being! #IBREAKthesilence #hwdsb Angela Giardino

🌟Special library guest‼️ Señora LeBlanc has been reading the collection of #GlobalReadAlouds🌍 by Yuyi Morales🇲🇽 to our Gr. 3 friends! They love learning Spanish words and are now teaching their friends words from their own languages, too! #ClassroomSwap Alexandra LeBlanc

It's Ontario Public Library Month at Winona Elementary ! Students are getting library cards and visiting local libraries for a chance to win cool prizes! Draw is Nov. 4!

10 students left the library with awesome prizes today! So glad to see a full ballot box of check out receipts = families visiting libraries!

This week's #GRA2019 book is Little Night 🌌. We loved it! A question from a student for author Yuyi Morales: "Mother Sky's dress changes colour throughout the book. Does this have to do with where the sun is in the sky on each page?"

Some new read alouds for Winona Elementary teachers and students!

#StudentChoice and #StudentVoice! TLs give students a say in what materials we purchase in our LLCs!

🌟The Power of School Libraries!🌟 My 4yo checked out this book from his school library. We read it at bed time last night, and he has been drawing 🌠☁️🚀 and 👽 from the moment he woke up this morning. Libraries inspire! #LibraryLove HWDSB Gord Parsons

J realized we don't have many books about basketball!🏀 Students add their needs and wants to our ordering list, ensuring that they find what they are looking for in the LLC!

Choosing "relevant resources" for a research project is a lot like choosing what to pack for a trip! Winona Elementary Gr. 4s are learning how to filter through the abundance of information we have at our finger tips! 📸 from iStock

This is still one of our very favourite window shots of all time! <3

This was such a beautiful day. Posing like an oligarch in my mum's old maternity wear while I chatted to the talented @haleymlotek. Can you feel nostalgic for an era that was in the same year as this one?

Appreciate #theconciouskid ongoing provocations. instagram.com/p/CAvmPPspkyd/…
