End of the Year!

We have had a wonderful, busy year. Don't forget that many of our media center activities are documented on this blog - just check out the archive on the lower right hand side of this page to see older posts.

Our students have checked out a total of 20,971 books this year.  In addition, teachers, staff, and parents have checked out an additional 4,066 items. 

We hope everyone has a safe and happy summer!  Remember to keep READING!!! Students who return their summer reading logs will be invited to a special party in August.

Also, don't forget to email your summer READING pictures to Mrs. Wagner.  Keep watching this blog for pictures to be posted.

In Honor of Mrs. Parton

One of our fifth graders, Matthew W. has donated the Rick Riordan novel, "The Son of Neptune" to the media center in honor of his 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Rebecca Parton.  This book will be available for check out when school resumes in August.  Thank you, Matthew!

In Honor of Palmer Griffin

We have recently received two wonderful books by Patricia Polacco for our media center in honor of Palmer Griffin, former principal of Brookwood Elementary who is retiring from the district office this year.  The books were donated by Martha Wassum and will be available for students to check out next school year.

5th Grade Projects


Our fifth graders have been researching inventions and inventors.  Students had the freedom to decide how they would present their findings to the class.  Some shared their research with an oral report, others chose to make a poster, a powerpoint, or a glog (online interactive posters).

Some of the glogs are posted below - these will only be available until the accounts are reassigned next school year.
 

SORRY - THESE GLOGS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING.

Author Visit - Diane Z. Shore

Today, Georgia award winning author, Diane Z. Shore visited our pre-k, kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students. There were two presentations, each followed by book signings. The students and teachers really enjoyed her visit. Thanks to our wonderful PTA for helping us to be able to bring authors right to our students! Be sure and ask your student to tell you about George Washington's teeth!
