RES Tie Dye Shirts - Volunteers Needed

Tie Dye Help

Students are working hard at RES to follow expectations!  They are doing such a great job that we anticipate they will light the second set of lights, again!  This time our celebration is giving scholars a chance to tie dye their white shirts they brought in at the start of the year in RES colors!
Kim Aucter has graciously agreed to lead this activity during our art classes, but she still needs help.  We need extra hands to help with the tie dying of the shirts with students, rinsing out shirts, and also laundering all the new shirts.  Please look through and sign up for as many slots as you think you can help with.
Thanks for all you do to help support your children and us!

New Picture Book Section!

 The NEW picture book section is complete!!  I'm very excited to present our new organization system for picture books.  I hope that it will make picture books more accessible to students and helpful for teachers and community members.  Picture books are already circulating more than before!! The picture books are now organized based on topic rather than author's last name.   The topics have been grouped together based on similar topics with a color code.  So a book's call number will include the color bin it will be found in to help narrow your search in the stacks.  An example is P Purple Funny.   The P stands for Picture Book.  The Purple stands for the color label/bin.  Funny is the specific bin to look in. There are colorful labels on the shelves to help direct you to the right spot!  The reason behind this new organization is mainly to help young learners.  Kids don't care who wrote their favorite books, they care what it is about.  There are many kids who ask

The library has gone through a transformation.  And as there are quite a few new folx in the building, I wanted to give a little tour of the library and share what the library has to offer to support you in your work.  Space Catalog Use our library catalog to look for the books you need.  Check to see if the book is available and then use its call number to locate it in the library.  The first part of a call number tells you what section in the library to look.  The second part tells you what shelf.  The map can help with finding what section is which.  If you would like more guidance on how to use the catalog, please let me know and I will happily teach you.  You can also reserve library books from the catalog.  Watch this video to find out how.   Resources The library offers lots of resources beyond books.  From the library website, you can access a variety of digital research tools, eBooks, and audiobooks.  Look at the different colored tabs to find what you are looking for.  I wil

Second graders at RES are in the middle of a unit on picture books that have won the Caldecott medal for best illustration. One of the requirements for a Caldecott book is that the illustrations must add meaning to the text. The scholars have been sharing Caldecott books, first with the text alone and then with both the text and illustrations.They have been asking the question, "What do the illustrations add to the text?" and discussing their observations with partners. Sharing with partners about what the illustrations add to the text Here are some of the Caldecott medal-winning books they have shared. Ask yourself: What do the illustrations add to the text?
