Gr. 3 International Bookmark Exchange

In November, 3H and 3Y were excited to participate in a bookmark exchange for International School Library Month. The theme this year is “fairy tales and folktales” and schools around the world created bookmarks for each other and learn about stories from other countries. The Grade 3s were matched with a partner school in Celje, Slovenia and worked hard at designing their bookmarks and getting them ready to send to their new friends.

Author Kallie George Visits the Gr. 1s

Ever wondered where you can find a unique pet? Unicorns, fairy horses or dragons? The Grade 1 girls discovered where these magical creatures live when Author Kallie George visited the Jr. Library to read from her newest novel, The Magical Animals Adoption Agency.

The Grade 1s then worked on a writing activity to create their own magical animals. The girls produced illustrated stories with information about the animal and who should adopt each one.
