Grade K

Welcome to our library! K students are now having classes regularly in our school's library and they are learning how to navigate the many shelves and choose books from our many great titles.

Grade 1

Students learned about the difference between fiction and nonfictions books. They compared books about the same topic in both genre.

Grade 2
"That's Private": What kinds of information should I keep to myself when I use the internet?

Grade 3
Students learned about the relationship between a call number and a book’s location in the library. They were able to locate a book on a topic of their choosing in the nonfiction section of the library using the call number.

Grades 4 & 5
Students learned that with AI advancements it is now even more important to keep our personal information offline.

WPS has approved Typing Club found at www.typing.com for home practice.

Grade 3 & 4

In December, they will complete a keyboarding assessment and learn their current speed and accuracy rates.

Grade 5

Practicing typing at home is helpful for improving their speed and accuracy making it far easier to complete digital written assignments.

Gr 3 - 3 books

Books are due back each week and everyone is allowed to renew for one week and to put books on hold for one week.
4th & 5th grade students can hold books digitally by logging into our online catalog - Destiny Discover.

LOST BOOKS

I will email caregivers if books have not been returned in one month.
If you have looked for missing books at home and can not find them:
1. Purchase a used replacement copy of the same book title and send it to the school library.

2. Replace the book with a new or lightly used book that you already own of any title, preferably the same topic as the lost book but it's not mandatory.

Thank you for helping to keep our library well-stocked!
