Welcome Back!
A Note from Ms. Roetheli
We are rocking and rolling in the library! Over the next week kindergarten and first grade will complete their orientation days which means EVERY student at Caldwell Elementary will have come to the library. In September, it is my goal to get all 1st through 5th graders logging their reading on Beanstack.
Beanstack is an online reading log that allows your student to complete challenges and be rewarded for their reading.
To access Beanstack:
- Have your student log into Classlink.
- 1st and 2nd graders should have a Quick card to log in (ask your child's teacher if you have not received one)
- 3rd-5th graders log in using their S# and password
- Beanstack can be located in the "Campus Library" folder.
- Click "Log Reading and Activities" in the top left.
- Choose an activity to complete or log your minutes read.
- Keep reading and logging to earn prizes!

Pre-K
We are practicing our song to find our spots on the carpet to listen to a story. We have also begun introducing nursery rhymes. We love to play with the toys after the story!
Kindergarten
1st Grade
After a three day library orientation to build our routines we are ready to check out books to take home and read with our families! Following book fair, please check your student's backpack for their book. You can read it together and return it for a new one!
2nd Grade
We are continuing to learn how the library is organized and using spine labels to find books. Second graders are able to check out two books at a time.
Together we will learn about the 2x2 Book List and read some of these books together while reviewing how to log them in Beanstack.

Library Happenings
Spine Label Scavenger Hunt
Students in 3rd-5th grades participated in a spine label scavenger hunt during their library orientation.
Featured Author
Thank you to the PTO for funding our featured author display! This rotating display will call attention to different authors throughout the year and can be seen from the library as well as the hallway.
Treatment Agreements
Each class created a treatment agreement during their first visit to the library. Students started by brainstorming ideas with partners using Stand Up-Hand Up-Pair Up and then discussed it as a class.
