This week the kindergartners enjoyed the Chickadee Award nominee Randy Riley’s Really Big Hit by Maine author/illustrator Chris Van Dusen. After hearing the story about the boy who built a giant robot to save his town from a fireball, the children used squares of colored paper to make their own two-dimensional robots. They enjoyed both the book and the project!
The first graders heard the Chickadee Award nominee Lost and Found by Bill Harley. In this funny story, Justin has lost his hat and must gather enough courage to ask the grouchy custodian to search the lost and found. In the process of discovering his hat, Justin discovers that looks are deceiving–the custodian is really a very nice man!
The second graders explored the concept of infinity with the Chickadee Award nominee Infinity and Me by Kate Hosford.
Because its last library day was a snow day, Mrs. Margoles’ class listened to two Chickadee books this week, Too Tall Houses by Gianna Marino and Step Gently Out by Helen Frost.
