Our first book club was a success! We read Night Chef and brought the book to life with a trail mix snack, decorated chef hats, discussed the story, and had fun with “Would You Rather?” questions. We wrapped up by revealing our next book! @LivelyEagles @IrvingLibraries

After reading Frida Kahlo’s Flower Crown with 4th graders, sts created their own crowns inspired by their personalities, interests, and what makes them unique. A beautiful way to celebrate Frida’s art and let students celebrate themselves, too! @LivelyEagles @IrvingLibraries

Sometimes being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared. Vera la Valiente is Scared is a sweet reminder that taking a first step can go a long way when facing our fears. @LivelyEagles @IrvingLibraries

Students accessed over 62k resources this six weeks--covering topics from Arthurian Legend to The Lost Boys of Sudan. In the library, that includes responding to open ended questions to help build background for in class texts. In the library, we read AND write! @IrvingLibraries
