Welcome Back!

We have had a wonderful start to the new school year! Students have been orienting their way around the library. We have been talking about the Dewey Decimal system and how we organize Fiction and NonFiction books. Our TES library is a mix of genre organization, “bookstore method” better known as Genrefication, and Dewey Classification. For example, all of our graphic novels are on one metal shelf as are all our board books for new readers. We also have a high-interest shelf, filled with popular series such as: Dogman, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Stick Dog, Wings of Fire, and other popular series. To help student become more independent in their library, students successfully completed grade-appropriate Library Book Scavenger hunts like this one:
