Our students' learning took flight during the Birds of a Feather presentation by @texaswildlife. 🪶 They explored habitats, feathers, researched birds, and even measured wingspans. What a soaring adventure! 🦅 @DISD_Libraries @mr_marketAP @bafeederpattern

Ms. Olivares' 3rd grade class is the Reading March Madness CHAMPS! 📚🌟 They crushed the competition by reading 1,000+ minutes every week and celebrated their big win with ice cream sundaes in the courtyard! Way to go! 🏆 @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES @baverticalteam

A wild time in the library! 🐾 Thank you to @texaswildlife for an engaging Skins & Skulls presentation. Students became wildlife detectives, identifying mammals by their skulls while learning habitats, diets & survival adaptations! @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES @baverticalteam

April is School Library Month and I need to brag on the librarians of Dallas ISD @DISD_Libraries . What they're doing for students across this district isn't just impressive. It's transformational.

Students traveled the world from the comfort of our library! The Maps & Stamps presentation was a fun, hands-on way to build literacy, curiosity, and global learning all at once! 🌏📚 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries

[Poonam Patel @MsPatelLibrary]

Big thanks to @UnitedWay & @atmosenergy for an amazing Ready Day! 📚 The students were so excited to be read to, asked great questions, and fully enjoyed the stories. Nothing better than seeing young minds light up with joy! 💕 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries

[Poonam Patel @MsPatelLibrary]

One of the BEST library moments? ✨ Overhearing a group of friends-once reluctant readers-huddled together, swapping graphic novels and excitedly sharing their favorite parts. 📚 Stories build community, and I love seeing it happen! 💕 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

[Poonam Patel @MsPatelLibrary]

Our Casa View Eagles loved the "Birds of a Feather" presentation by @texaswildlife. They had a great time learning fun facts, identifying birds, researching, and even measuring wingspans! Talk about spreading their wings! 🦅 @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES

[Poonam Patel @MsPatelLibrary]
