Students have been reading and discussing, Minh Le’s book Drawn Together

“Lê was born in the U.S. and grew up in Connecticut. His grandparents were from Vietnam. His picture book, illustrations by Dan Santat, explores how a young boy and his Thai grandfather learn to bridge barriers of language, culture and age. Drawn Together uses relatively few words to tell a story about struggling to find them. After an evening of uncomfortable silence, the boy and his grandfather finally figure out how to communicate. It’s only when they discover a mutual love of art that they’re able to connect.”

Students will be returning to the library on Monday, March 14th. This week we are reviewing Library expectations:

1. Voice Choice (Levels: 0. Silent, 1. Whisper, 2. Talking)
2. Circulation Desk procedures (patron numbers and table assignments)
3. Book care, book return policy, and lost book(s) procedures

All students (1st-6th graders) are required to bring a silent reading book to their library class. Approximately 10 minutes of library class will be set aside for silent reading and book exploration.

Excited to have students reading and exploring books in the TES Library:)
