Turkey Day is on its way!

For our Kindergarten friends, this week in the Media Center we are going to be talkin' turkey!  I have a fiction book, A Turkey for Thanksgiving, and a non-fiction book, All about Turkeys, that I will be reading.  We will  also be talking about fiction and non-fiction and where to find them in the library! 

Did you know that there are actually fiction books in the numbered section of the library?  It's true!  When Mr. Dewey set up the Dewey Decimal System, he had all the books classified.  Over the years, librarians have separated the fiction books out so they are easier to find.  Some fiction books, however, were left within the system.  Books like folk tales, poetry and literature are still found in the numbered section of the library.  Check it out!

For our PreK friends, I will be reading, Thanks for Thanksgiving.  This book is all about what kids are thankful for.  I chose this book because I won't see any of them next week because of the holiday!
As always if this doesn't work for your class, please let me know!  I will be happy to choose something else that would work better!

In Technology news, this week is a double dose!  First, Media Monday is this week!  Meet me in the reading room at 3:20 and I will share some tips about how to set up and use the Smartboard in your classroom.  I will also show you where to find fun activites!
Second, for our late start, I will be showing you the improvements on the report cards.  I know it's still a month away, but if I wait until December it will be too late!  I will also talk a bit about Performance tracker and how to access it.

If you have any questions, comments or fun suggestions, just let me know!

Have a great week!
