STORY TIME IN THE LIBRARY
Every other week, students come into the library and enjoy 2 - 3 stories on our story steps. The stories selected are based on annual holidays, monthly observances, or special curated themes. We usually read one nonfictional story and a fictional story.
Story selections will vary by grade.
Mrs. Rothenay's Kindergarten class enjoys a story read by library intern, Aaliyah Suarez on our story steps.
ONLINE READ-ALOUDS
We highly encourage families to visit our YouTube Channel to take advantage of our virtual library collection of read-aloud to share and enjoy at home. Reading aloud to a child is essential in developing reading comprehension, vocabulary and fluency skills!
