STUDENT BOOK-INSPIRED ART

A big thank you to sixth-grade student Elijah Brinkley who drew this cool picture to go along with our Scary Stories To Tell In the Dark contest.  Thanks a lot, Elijah! We love it!

DON'T FORGET...

...tomorrow is the deadline for completing the Halloween ("Little Orphant Annie") lesson in the library's Google classroom to get your name into a drawing to win your own hardbound copy of Scary Stories To Tell In the Dark, a DVD of the film version AND a bag full of Halloween treats.

HALLOWEEN CONTEST

MODULE ONE PRIZE WINNERS

Congratulations to the following students for winning the drawings for the first nine weeks.  For every library Google classroom assignment completed, students get their names put in the drawings for prizes.  There will be prizes given at the end of each nine weeks.  WMS virtual students are also eligible to win.

It's Almost Time for Some Prizes

I'm so happy so many of you are checking in on our library Google classroom. I thought I would have a contest, of sorts, to reward this participation. At the end of each Wit and Wisdom module (roughly nine weeks), the library will have a drawing for a prize. Prizes will be related somehow to the theme and/or books of the module. For each assignment you complete (and not just mark as done), your name will be entered into the drawing. The more you do, the more times your name is entered. The contest is for students of WMS.

To see the prizes being given, check the Google Library Class for your grade!

Tomorrow, I'll introduce you to our Tuesday/Friday workers.

Well, welcome back, everyone!  It seems like forever since I've seen you all.  I know you're excited to be back at school and able to see your friends.  I know I missed seeing all your faces in April and May.  I hope you had a great summer!

The first couple weeks of school I will be doing an inventory of our collection, so if you still have a book out from the spring please get it to me the next time you're at school.  If you are now a virtual student, just have mom or dad drop it off at the school one day at their earliest convenience.  There are, of course, no fines for these books.

To check and see if you still have out a book and the title of it, please log in to your library account on OPAC.  The instructions for doing so are in the upper right corner of the OPAC page once you click on 'log in'.

To close, if you have not joined the library Google classroom for your grade, please email me for the class code or check with a teacher in your grade.

Again, welcome back!  Here's to a great, albeit unusual, year!!!
