Summer is here, and our Library Services Department has various programs and activities planned all summer. Check out the summer reading website for information about Pop-Up Libraries, Summer Reading Challenge, and other community reading programs. https://t.co/NKMhs9hBDb
When your fifth graders voluntarily come to the library at recess to work on the enrichment crafts they started earlier - and bring friends - and more friends - and teach and help each other - it feels like the library you always wanted!
You can try to have a thank you event for your amazing library volunteers, but they're just going to use it to fill your bucket some more. Thank you to the best team of people for all the things this year!! #DonutsAreNotEnough#EvenIfTheyAreBlueAndOrange@LibrariesRRock
Excited to show all the love to my STEAM team members, Lauren Lightfoot, STEAM coordinator extraordinaire, and Abe Alvarez, Instructional Technology and Everything Else Specialist tomorrow! There wasn't an official day, so we claimed a cool one to celebrate you @JLJohnsonElem
Happy National Principal Appreciation Day @PrincipalKUnger, who spends countless hours (evenings, weekends) working to support our campus @JLJohnsonElem !
"It's not just an at-school project - you have to work at home."
"Keep practicing the presentation part."
"Be prepared and very active when you're speaking."
Our TAG Talent Development students had their ISP Showcase last night. They are so wise with their reflections and advice to others doing an independent study project for the first time . . .
"Don't do it the night before! Take time to make your project really great."
"Choose one part that you're already good at so at least something about your project is familiar."
"Don't rush it, but don't go too slowly."
"Make it as interactive as you can, and be friendly."
"Use your time wisely and be on time for the showcase."
"Use your time wisely. It isn't a very pleasant experience to run out of time."
"Try to make your product unique and something other people would not think of."
Hat tip to our incredible STEAM coordinator @joeleejohnson for support with 3D printing. Soccer, bird feeders, black holes, and go ahead: pull some facts out of that ramen!
Family Literacy Night is happening this evening for our PK, K, 1st, and 2nd grade families and FAC and FCC! Come from 4:30 - 5:45 for fun reading activities, door prizes, and pizza!
