This week we discussed Internet Safety and Digital Citizenship. I stressed to the students when at home they need a grown up to help them find a computer site that is 'kid friendly'. Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathmann was a fun book to read and Safety Tip #101 is the most important. Read the book to find out the safety tip.

A Visit From Mike Artell

The students really enjoyed a visit from Mike Artell! It was great to hear him tell the story of Petite Rouge and ole Claude de Gator. He shared pictures of his family and we found out one of his daughters is and Auburn graduate. Each child had the opportunity to draw with Mr. Mike, race cars, dinosaurs, castle, animals and silly faces, the students loved it! We have some wonderful artist at BSLK!

Fee Fi Fo Fum...

This week we read Jacqes and the Beanstalk by Mike Artell. We read the story in the giant's castle and then we found out he was watching us. (check out the pictures on the side) The students were excited to learn that Mike Artell is going to be visiting our school next week.

Be cool about fire safety!

Do you know what happens when a dragon sneezes? We read No Dragons for Tea  (Fire Safety for Kids) by Jean E. Pendziwol and found out! This week, we talked about fire safety and what do in a fire emergency. Please talk about fire safety at home, check batteries in your smoke detector and practice a home fire drill.

Recycle, Recycle, Recycle

This week in Library and Enrichment, students learned about recycling, keeping Albertville clean and saving the Earth. Library classes were visited by Michael Recycle aka Ms. Millwood and Enrichment classes were visited by Litterbug Doug aka Bernie. Albertville does have a recycling center, check out the Recycle link on my page. Recycling is really easy, just ask your child.

Apples, Apples, Books...

What a week at BSLK this week! We had the book fair in the library, Grandparent's Day, and a visit from Johnny Appleseed! Thank you to all the  Moms who helped with the book fair, could not have done it without you!! Johnny Appleseed visited each library class this week. Students learned about how he traveled west planting apple  seeds and how he was friend to the animals and everyone he met. Johnny Appleseed was a peacemaker.

Guess who visited the library this week?!

MISS SMITH !!! Miss Smith was our guest reader, will Ms. Millwood ever come back to the library? We read Miss Smith's Incredible Storybook by Michael Garland and learned about book characters.  WOW! What a fun week in the library
