So great to see what happens with book club books once they leave the library!! 👏 Observing Ms. Granger’s silent discussion using the Big Paper strategy showed how deeply her 6th graders are thinking about their novels in verse. #NationalPoetryMonth #SRVLibraryLove @SRVUSD1

Our March Lucky Day Book Drawing was a hit! Students drew color-coded slips from the pot of "golden books" & tried out new books they found by total luck! The shamrocks are ratings of all the books read! 👏Shout out to @LibraryDvms for collaborating! #SRVLibraryLove @SRVUSD1
