If you have not heard by now, the Salem Keizer Public Library Book Mobile made a stop at Myers Elementary School this last Friday. We learned all about checking out books at the Public Library. We learned about books, movies, cd's, and even puppets that you can check out from our very own Public Library. We also found out that we can keep books for three whole weeks!!! We even got to check out our very own book on the Book Mobile. We can keep these books for just the weekend or for the entire three weeks. When you are done with the book there are three different ways of returning it. You can:
1. Return it to our classroom
2. Return it to the West Salem branch of the Public Library (Located in the Roth's Parking Lot)
3. Return it to the Main branch of the Salem Public Library
Now all three ways are great but if you return it to the Main branch you will receive a button and a chance to name the Library's new mascot which is a frog!! So now is your chance to check out the main branch of the Salem Public Library if you have not done so already. You will not be dissappointed! You can also check out other fun things happening at the library by going to http://www.cityofsalem.net/Departments/Library/Pages/home.aspx to see what kinds of things you can do at our public library! Have fun!
Grandparents'Day is coming on Tuesday, March 1st, and Myers is hosting lunch for all our special guests. If you have family members who are interested in coming to have lunch with us please stop by the office to buy a ticket if you want to buy a school lunch that day or if you want to bring a lunch that would be great too. This is just a nice time to spend with grandparents if they are able to join us for lunch. Remember our lunch time is from 11:30am to 12pm and everyone is more than welcome to check out the Scholastic Book Fair that will be in the library starting February 22nd and ending March 4th.
Lastly, Spring conferences are just around the corner! I will not be meeting with everyone this time around but if you would like to meet, I will be more than happy to set up a time for you. There will be more information about dates and times in the next few weeks. So keep an eye out for that!
Once again, thank you to everyone who has helped out, volunteered, sent in a snack or simply stopped by to say hi! I can not beleive how fast this year is going and time is just slipping away...But be on the the lookout for more information and possible pictures coming soon!
Hope everyone is enjoying the nice and dry 3-day weekend. Happy Presidents' Day! See you on Tuesday! :)
