September 11, 2011

This week WJPMS News will be brought to you by Mr. Martin's 4th Graders. I hope you enjoyed the first week of morning news! If you have a poem, song, or something special that you would like your students to share, let me know. We would love to have special guests appear on our news!

Open Checkout will be every morning from 8:15-8:45. You can send 3-5 students at a time. Many teachers create a daily schedule so there is no question about who goes to the library each day. Students may also bring their library books to check out during their scheduled library time. Please make sure every student brings their library card with them!

I have placed a Wish List on the circulation counter. If you would like me to order any specific titles, please write them on the list. I will notify you as soon as they arrive.

Safari Montage is available. Type safari485 into the address bar to reach the login page. Use your MNPS username and password to access hundreds of videos to supplement your lessons. (You can only access this from school on the MNPS network.)

Parent Book Club Coming Soon! Our first book will be The Reading Promise by Alice Ozma. Check out this link to learn more about this inspirational story and "The Streak!" http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/05/09/eveningnews/main20061247.shtml

If you are interested in joining us, let me know this week (by September 16th) and I will order a book for you!

I would like to meet with each grade level team this week so that we can plan some collaborative lessons. If each team leader could email me the time and date that you will be meeting together, I will come!

“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress.

Working together is success.”
