Last week as I walked down the hallway I heard the enchanting sounds of young students singing. I peeked into Mrs. Healy's 1st grade class and was invited to listen and enjoy for a few minutes. They were singing a song based on a Maurice Sendak book and it was simply charming. The students were so experienced with the song that Mrs. Healy was having young Riley lead the group!
I've been heard to say I have the best job in the world - I get to work with books and kids!
Here are some of the many wonderful "perks" of being a school librarian:
Here are some of the many wonderful "perks" of being a school librarian:
- spending time with each and every student in the school
- seeing children grow and mature from Kindergarten to 4th grade. Sometimes they even come back from CMS or CHS during Open House or Book Fair and I get to see "alums"
- meeting many parents and caregivers
- working with all staff members - Believe me, we've got an awesome group of educators!
- being able to look at "the big picture" of our school and community; again - awesome!
If you were able to visit during Open House, I hope I was able to see you then. If not, feel free to contact me with any comments or questions about our library program.
BTW, our annual Scholastic Book Fair is scheduled for October 29th-November 3rd.
More later!
