This month we are excited to invite students to read something NEW. New Year! New Book! How can I find the right book for me? What's something that I am curious about? These are a couple of questions that we want to ask to help guide students in finding books in our library. We will support them with exploring their Classlink research tools, guiding them through the Dewey Decimal system, and teaching them the importance of asking questions during reading. We are excited to share a new digital reading challenge log in Beanstack, with our students in 2nd - 5th grade. 

The Maker Space has many choices for students to MAKE during this month. Students will have the choice to MAKE a Stop Motion commercial to share for the Great Kindness Challenge week. We will share a few on our TNF commercial segment. Students can also work on winter making stations and the January maker choice board. 

Looking for a special way to celebrate your child and the WSES library? Students select a book on their birthday, take a photo for our BIRTHDAY BOOK WALL, get a special name plate inside the book, and get to be the FIRST to read the new book that will be added to the WSES library! Check out the PTA website for more information. *The books will be donated to the WSE library.
