It's almost time for school!

Where did summer vacation go?! It feels like we went from "Last Day Love" to "Back to school" in a heartbeat! I'm excited to see everyone again though. We have some fun changes in the library this year. New seating, new books, and new activities. The 4th and 5th graders will be doing a "Battle of the Books" using the Dorothy Canfield Fisher Book Award books. I hope everyone has fun with it. We will also be getting some Sphero robots in the library (for keeps, not just one loan!) and all of the grades will have some interactions with them. They are a lot of fun and a great way to get hands-on programming experience. We will be learning about digital citizenship, digital leadership, literacy, and robotics. We will read and play and learn and have fun! I can't wait.

You may have noticed an Instagram feed down the side of this page. I wanted to update the blog more frequently last year, but found it a bit complicated for quick updates. For this year I'll be posting photos regularly on Instagram and updating the blog with more detailed information every couple of days (or weeks...). Please take a minute to follow @dbslibrary on Instagram.

I can't wait to see all the kiddos again on August 29th! Enjoy the remaining days of summer.
