January Newsletter

1/4/2016

     This month, kindergarteners and first graders will meet some of the most beloved authors (Rosemary Wells, Mo Willems, etc) and characters (Elephant and Piggie, Amelia Bedelia, etc) in children's literature.       
     It’s award season!  In January, the American Library Association (ALA) announces the winners of book and media awards, such as the Caldecott and Newbury Medals.  Second and third grade students will read and analyze different picture books and bestow their own award to a winner of their choice.
     Fourth and fifth graders will write book reviews to share with classmates using Biblionasium, a book-sharing website similar to Goodreads. The cold weather makes it a perfect time to settle in with lots of good books!
