I hope everyone enjoyed their week off. I have a lot of news to share this month. If you have any questions, please ask!
Limitless Libraries
Each month we receive new books from Limitless Libraries. These titles are sent to us before they are released publicly! Here are the titles we received last week: The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan, Tales from a Not-So -Smart Miss Know-It-All by Rachel Renee Russell, Skippyjon Jones Cirque de Ole by Judith Schachner and Return to the Willows by Jacqueline Kelly. I will be adding them to our system this week!

Capstone Interactive
Share with your students and families. This is a great resource for students to listen to and read stories online. A link can be found on our Library Media web page also. We have been assigned a new username and password.

Library Title Requests
If you would like to see any specific titles added to our collection, please email me a list. I will begin sending those requests into our vendors. Thank you!
Books and CD Kits
They are almost ready! I have created "kits" that contain a paperback book and an audio copy of the book. The yellow "kits" are appropriate for K-2 students. They are available for a 1 night checkout period only! I will begin working on the 3rd and 4th grade kits as soon as possible.
Million Minutes Book Club
Help us reach our goal of 1,000,000 minutes of reading before the school year ends! If every child reads 20 minutes a day we will accomplish it together. A flyer and reading log will be sent home this week. After each child finishes his/her reading log, send it to the library and I will record the number of minutes read and give the students a new log to take home. Students can read more than 20 minutes a day! Also, younger students can be read to by an adult. There is a bulletin board in the hall outside of the playroom where students can monitor our group's progress!
WJPMS
If you have any news that you would like to share, please let me know the day before you would like to see it on WJPMS. My hope is that WJPMS will be an authentic source of news for our students. See you on Channel 3 at 8:05 each day!
Have a great week!
