Let Their Imaginations Grow!

The week of October 22 - 26 brought such excitement about new books!  It was our Scholastic Fall Book Fair event, which took over our Library STEAM Center for the week in such a great way!  The theme for this season's event was The Enchanted Forest where students can let their imaginations grow with new books.  The students enjoyed two days of previews before a 3-day sales event took place, ending with our amazing school family event, The Monster Mash.



While the book fair was going on, we still had our regular Library STEAM classes on the stage.  We spent this time reviewing and learning about a wonderful resource available to our students, TumbleBook!  This is an online library of books that our students can enjoy.  "TumbleBooks are animated, talking picture books which teach kids the joy of reading in a format they'll love. TumbleBook Library takes existing picture books, adding animation, sound, music and narration to produce an electronic picture book. You can read it, or have it read to you."  Your child can enjoy this resource at home as well.  It is available on our Hornung Media Center website by following this link...https://hornungmediacenter.weebly.com/tumblebook.html.  Have them show you this great resource at home!
