Welcome to the Powder Mill School Library Media Center...
Our Library Media Center is located in a beautifully spacious room opposite the north end of the courtyard at Powder Mill School. Our shelves are home to selections of fiction, nonfiction, and reference material for staff and student use. In addition, we have audiovisual equipment and non-print materials, including DVDs, for use by educators in our classrooms. In our quest to instill in students a love of reading, it is our goal to develop collections which will support the curriculum for grades 3-6 in content areas and those which will appeal to students for both information and leisure reading. A mission of the library is to encourage a desire for lifelong learning.
Please check for activities on the library website that might interest you during your time at home. I will add things when Weebly allows edits. Read some ebooks. I will try to add the info in Websites for Kids. Dr. Petschke will add library to his Specials' lessons. I sure do miss seeing you all at school, but don't forget...you can reach me by email Monday through Friday from 12-2. I will answer emails anytime to stay connected!
Would love to hear what you are reading and doing while at home! Did anyone try making a Pinwheel Pencil on Pencil Day or rainbow crayons on Crayon Day yesterday? Today begins a new month. April is Poetry Month, Kite Month and School Library Month! If you decide to try your hand at writing poetry, share them! I would love to read them!
Enjoy your family time...READ every day!! Go outside to experience the April sunshine when we're not being showered by raindrops!
Missing everyone...sending virtual hugs...Be well...
