WJPMS will be brought to you by Mrs. Tate's 3rd grade students this week. We will also have guests Monday morning who will bring us a very special song in honor of Constitution Day! We hope you will tune in to Channel 3 at 8:05 AM.
Open Checkout is from 8:15-8:45 each day. Please have your students bring their library cards with them. It slows down the checkout process if I have to type in individual names. Thank you!
Over the last 2 weeks the library has had limited availability due to our online DIBELS and DEA assessments. Thank you for your understanding as we ventured into new territory. It has been a growing experience for all as we determined how much time the library computers would be utilized while the other resources were limited. Many classes took advantage of the open checkout each morning and I am thankful for your support in allowing the students to use that time to exchange books. I will look forward to seeing you all in the library!
Limitless Libraries- I am pleased to announce that we will have an additional $3000 to spend on books this year as well as an additional $1250 to spend on play aways for our library! This funding is coming from the Limitless Libraries partnership! I will be meeting with the director of the Limitless Libraries program Tuesday morning regarding the process of spending this money.
Educator Cards- Only a few people have requested an Educator Card. I would strongly recommend that you complete the green application to receive a card. This will allow you to reserve items and have them sent directly to you at Jones Paideia. It can't get any better than that! Let me know if you need another application.
World Book Encyclopedia- Don't forget to check out the Library Media-Reference Links on our website. You have access to World Book Kids. Some have expressed interest in having their students research particular topics. Check out this link to help guide you: http://www.jonespaideiaes.mnps.org/Page52762.aspx
Check out this link to World Book Classroom. It has a great section on Community Helpers under the "Know It" section: http://www.worldbookonline.com/ewol/knowit/home?id=2
Our school is always collecting Box Tops as a PTO fund raiser and Pull Tabs for the Ronald McDonald House. For every 10 box tops a student brings in, I will give them $1 in Honey Money. Please send them to the library and I will turn them in to the PTO.
