Funded Aug 24, 2017I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your donations to my students and our library. The donations bought the library a new big book easel, shelf markers, and a few books to add to our collection. The big book easel has made our big books more accessible to the students and helps them see the pages when they are read during story time. The shelf markers assist the student when selecting a book for checkout. The shelf markers hold the book's place on the shelf while the student reviews the book. If they want to check the book out they bring the book and the shelf marker to the circulation desk. If the student doesn't want to check that book out, they know exactly where the book goes on the shelf.
Thank you for donating to my students and helping to improve our library. The addition of our new big book easel and shelf markers has made the library more organized and accessible. Students have been so excited to read the big books on the big book easel. They LOVE the NEW BLUE shelf markers.”

Read It - Research It - Publish It!
Funded Feb 22, 2017I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your donations to my students. The donations bought our library a new printer. We read and reviewing a variety of library books during the semester. Then students go to the computer and conduct more research about the topics they have read. Online and digital resources are used to research topics found in our library books. The students gather information using the computer and print the resources they need to complete their projects. When the rough drafts of the projects have been completed, they then type their projects and print them in the library. All final projects are presented during library class as book talks. The highest quality projects are put on display for the entire school to view.
The donations you gave have made our library a more useful research area. The students have opportunities to print their research and publish their projects. Thank you for your support and donations.”
