It’s my favorite day of the year: Author Visit Day! Thank you to Nick Mask for spending the day with our students and sharing your new books! He also taught about the writing process. The kids were just as excited as I was! @sixfingerstudios

So excited to introduce something new this week. Each week we will highlight a different topic, pairing a 3-D print and a physical library book. Students have a chance to win the 3-D print by answering questions about the topic correctly. Who will be the first to earn these pumpkins?

This student right here is a super reader! Morris just earned his sixth fan club pin. Students must read six books in a series and talk about the books in order to earn a pin. Keep reading!
