Celebration

Today we celebrated a wonderful year of reading together in the Hooked on Books Book Club. Readers from all three sessions shared the projects they created and some cake and ice cream with their parents. It was a nice way to end the year.

Summer weather on the patio

We have loved heading outside to share book discussions on the patio!

Delicious Snacks!

Mrs. Mullens has been spoiling us with her fantastic treats. This was a cookie pizza topped with fruit---delicious!

Projects galore!

Our readers have been busy for the past three weeks creating their book projects. We have artists making posters, rappers recording their tunes, and film makers. We will be sharing their projects at our end-of-book-club celebration on May 23.

Here's what Abbi and Sophie created for Half Magic:

A Perfect Reading Day

We could not have asked for a more delightful day on Tuesday to launch session three of Hooked on Books!
After completing a short online questionnaire, students headed outside to the library patio for cookies, ice cream, and their new book. We spent the afternoon reading and discussing, Sideways Stories and Half Magic. What fun!

Session 3

The Spring Session of Hooked on Books will begin on Tuesday, April 11 and run through May 15. Readers will meet from 3:30-4:30 in the library.
We will be reading:


Sideways stories from Wayside School by Louis Sachra.

The Gorillas of Gill Park by Amy Gordon

Half Magic by Edward Eager

If you are interested, be sure to have your parent register here. We looking forward to sharing these great books with you!

Projects unveiled

The Hooked on Books readers have had a busy session, focusing on a number of book projects.
They each created trading cards of their favorite characters to share. Then they chose a project to dive into. They have worked very hard to bring their books to life.
We have been sharing them for the past couple of weeks--what a fun time!
