Library will be a new experience for you this year as it is a graded class! We will be doing to majority of our work using this website and Google Classroom. 

Please make sure you read the library rules on the home page of this website. 

In library this year you will be:

• setting a personal reading goal

  • This reading goal is an individually set grade for each student, and will be graded at the end of each grading period. 

  • Finished slips for reading goals will be completed using a Google Form that can be found un Google Classroom. 

• actively listen and participate in Teacher Read Aloud (TRA) sessions

  • TRA is a weekly grade in class

• exploring different fiction genres and the sections of non-fiction

• learning how to search, interpret, and locate your library books using the new online catalog called FETCH

• examining non-fiction print resources- how to interpret and pull research from them

• research using online resources, recording facts as direct quotes with parenthetical citations, and writing a citation for your source

This year all 4th grade students will be using Google Classroom for library. This allows students to access assignments and submit them without ever having to use paper!

Depending on the assignment, students can receive immediate grades. Parents can also monitor upcoming assignments and student progress.
