News from the library -- December 8, 2008

You might have noticed that there were cookie crumbs in the library! This week Preschool went on a hunt for GINGERBREAD BABY. To culminate a week of gingerbread activites, preschoolers read the new sequel GINGERBREAD FRIENDS by: Jan Brett during library storytime.

In preparation for classroom mural making, they also watched Jan Brett's video on "How to Draw a Gingerbread". Please ask your child about this http://www.janbrett.com/, and enjoy Jan Brett's website together!

Intermediate and Upper Classes: This week students learned how to access Iowa AEA Online. This site requires a username and log-in that can be found on the AEA Online brochure that was sent home in Monday Folders. Please ask your child all about ClipArt and WorldBook Online. Enjoy viewing these great resources together at http://www.iowaaeaonline.org/.
