Weekly Update

Our contest, Peruse the Pa’rus, is going great with one student already qualifying and others close behind! The contest runs through January, so there are still plenty of reading days left!

In our library classes this week we are learning about internet safety. Remember to remain anonymous on-line, don’t give out you password, don’t include your full name on your password, don’t meet an internet buddy in person without your parents’ permission, be really careful sending and receiving photos, and don’t open emails from unknown senders.

We watched some videos in class which can be found at: www.brainpop.com (search for “internet safety” – that module is free) and www.netsmartz.org.

In the Know...

Welcome back to the library. This week we are practicing finding books on the electronic catalog and in the shelves. So far my volunteers have done a great job!
