Check here at the end of every month to see a recap of what we've been up to in the library! 

August/September 2026

Welcome to a new school year in the Meyer library! We've been busy from day 1. The students have been learning about the library, the different activities that we can do (like building on the Lego walls!), how to check out books, and of course reading lots of good books together. 

Pre-K students kicked off the school year by reading Time For School, Mouse! and then getting to color in mouse and design a new backpack for him. We also read Pete the Cat Wheels on the Bus and colored in Pete's school bus filled with all his friends. 

Pre-K students also got to rotate through some different building centers, and use cards at the centers to build school-related creations. Once they began their farm unit towards the end of the month, we read the book Big Red Barn together and the students used Legos to build their own colorful barns for some small farm animals. 

K students participated in a library scavenger hunt to learn about all the different parts of the library. They also did a group activity based on the book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Table groups worked together to use wooden blocks, green popsicle sticks, and plastic letters to build their own alphabet trees. They counted their letters at the end to see how many they fit on top of their alphabet tree! 

We're just getting started- more fun to come this fall in the library!
