Hi everyone! I miss you! I hope that you are reading and enjoying this extra time with your families! Don't forget to use our databases for reading, learning and exploring new topics! I will be posting reading videos daily, so check back here often! I will be posting weekly Library Challenges on kidOYO to be completed for badges on your scheduled library day--see schedule below. If you need anything or just want to say Hi!, please email me at dnodell@mineola.k12.ny.us or we can set up a Webex if you need any help with your challenges.
Happy reading,

**The Mineola Public Library will be having a Virtual Summer Reading program this summer beginning June 29. Children and families can earn points and collect virtual badges for reading and those that complete the program will be entered to win gift cards at the end of the summer. Hampton students who complete the program will also earn a kidOYO badge in September. You could also choose to do a non-virtual summer program if you would prefer. Click here for more information.
