career and community helper room

Our library partnered with the counselor to host community helpers and volunteers discussing their careers at our Career Fair (ish). To support student reading about careers before the fair we posted this room on our library site. There are lots of great book read alouds out there, though many of them do focus on younger learners. Check out some images below of our fair in the library, students were thrilled to meet our volunteers and try some of their tools of the trade. Happy reading! https://bit.ly/bgbsjobs

superhero reading and comic celebrations

For this year’s COMIC CON, our 5th graders celebrated the genre with reading, making and movie watching. Check out some images of the celebration below, and view our Superhero bitmoji room used during a computer lab rotation. Our comic con scheduling including rotating students through 6 areas of the library and alternate outside stations. This was a little hurried but everyone was busy and never bored!

Stations included superhero/monster cookie making, vintage movie clips (original Batman costumes were commented upon), Star Wars paperbag puppets, sidewalk chalk, and computer lab activities. Students did have time for flashlight reading in the Batcave.
