book recommendations

On display in the library are great book projects created by Mrs. Crete's class. These projects were created to encourage students to check out these books. Mrs. Crete's class wrote persuasive essays about why each book should win the Bartlett Fiction Award and made commercials advertising the book. Be sure to look at the projects and check out the books!

Thanks so much Mrs. Crete's class!

Reading Safari Update

Lots of reading logs are coming in. Keep it up!

Next raffle will be December 3rd at lunch time.

Kids voted on the t-shirt color. Red won.

Our First Reading Raffle

Today we had our first Reading Safari Raffle. This was very exciting! All students who have turned in a reading log were entered into the raffle. We had 114 students entered and I was able to give out 114 prizes!

The students are already asking when the next raffle will be. I'm not sure yet, but most likely in late November.

We have 60% of the students at Bartlett participating in the Reading Safari. This is a GREAT start.

Keep up the good job reading!

Flu Prevention Tips from Dr. Clarke

Dr. Clarke is a practicing doctor in Baltimore and a part time rapper. He wrote this rap to teach kids about how to prevent the spread of the H1N1 flu virus.

Here in the library we do clean the keyboards and mice everyday with Chlorox Wipes. On a busy day we can have 80 students pass through the computer lab. We all need to do our part to prevent the spread of germs!

Enjoy the video!
