May Library IS Class Plans

Kindergarten:  We will finish up with Letter of the week stories and our technology skill lessons on Learning.com.  Some time will be spent practicing with the Tux Paint program.

First Grade:  We are enjoying reading the animal reports we wrote on Tar Heel Reader in preparation for the field trip to the zoo.  We will be finishing up our lessons on Learning.com to acquire a few more new technology skills.  We will also be learning a little about the Dewey Decimal system and the location of the animal books on the shelves of our library.

Second Grade:  We have been watching our YouTube videos of our photography project and will next take a look at next year's nominated titles for the Goldfinch Award books.  We will end the month with a look at poetry books and some technology skill lessons on Learning.com.

Third Grade:  We will be previewing the books nominated for next year's Iowa Children's Choice Award, playing some Book Spine Bingo to review call letters and numbers, and learning about email.

Fourth Grade:  We will be meeting Ms. Sherrill the MS Librarian who will teach students about the care of their laptops they will receive as 5th graders.  Our month will end with some fun Bingo games in between field days, concerts, field trips, and graduation!
