Today in the library, Mrs. Curtis’s 5th grade Social Studies classes practiced researching with keyword searches on World Book Online. Students learned about the difference between using an online encyclopedia and using A.I. to find answers. They talked about how to make smart choices when researching and why it is important to look for information that is based on facts. Great work, 5th grade!

Our 6th grade students learned how to place their own holds in the library and look how many holds are already coming in. I will call in students during homeroom to pick up their books.

We need a bigger hold box!

Did you know that Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has donated over 300 million books to children? Dolly believed that poverty shouldn't stop a child's imagination. She wanted to ensure that children from her hometown, and eventually across the world, had the tools to dream of becoming whatever they wanted to be. Thank you, Dolly!

Today in Ms. Smith’s 6th grade science, students got to experience what it might be like to be an American black bear. Students looked at how the amount of available resources can impact a population and used their observations to determine what could cause a population to grow or decline. They then continued their learning by using World Book Online to research an animal of their choice. It was a great hands on lesson that helped bring population changes to life!

Big things happening in 6th grade science! Yesterday, Mrs. Freeman’s students visited the library to simulate real-world resources before jumping into digital research using World Book Online. We are so proud of how well behaved and engaged everyone was throughout the visit.
