“Chirps” from
the Media Center
Thank
you for a very successful Book Fair.
We earned around $3000.00 and we really appreciate your support. Our
volunteers were fabulous and we want to thank each one for
the time they spent helping in the Book Fair. We could not
do this project without them!
November
will be a very busy month for us. On November 2nd we
will have the author, Pam Alexander,
from Vidalia, Georgia with us. We will also have “Farm
Dress” day and
encourage everyone to dress in farmer attire. Ms. Alexander
and Rhonda Frost Petty are Georgia teachers who have created
Be Sweet Publications. It was created to teach children geography
and history of Georgia. They use children's books featuring
a fictional character who visits real life places. The character's
name is "Yumion." He is a walking talking Vidalia® onion.
Our students will have a chance to purchase these “Yumion” books
and have them autographed by Ms. Alexander.
You will receive an order form toward the end of this
month to choose books you may want to purchase.
November
2nd will also “Kick –Off” a
Reading Promotion the
media center is sponsoring for all grade levels. Each teacher
has details and will carry this out in his/her classroom.
November
13 – 19 is Children’s Book Week.
Our theme is “…And on the farm they read some
books, E-I-E-I-O”! Many activities have been planned
and we are looking forward to a great week!
We
would especially like to thank our “every day” volunteers
and our volunteer coordinator for the many things they do
to help us in the media center. We think you all are terrific!
“Fall
into Books” this season and have a great time reading
together!
