My Project

In the library, we always need books, and I'm requesting some high-demand books for circulation as well as fun books for giveaway prizes. We also need some new seating solutions to replace those pesky chairs that keep breaking, plus supplies like signs, storage bins and tubs that will help us organize all of our hands-on materials.

Speaking of hands-on, since I teach K-5, I need a variety of ways to reach my learners and make learning fun.

Legos, marbles, games, and toy sets get the job done. Learning through imagination is the goal! And of course, I've included my personal favorite request, a set of crochet hooks for some eager young creatives who want me to teach them how to crochet. I've got the yard, and now I'm so happy to add the hooks and get started!

We're so happy to have the chance to get updated things that will keep all parts of the library running smoothly!
