Once upon a time... there was an elementary school librarian named Mr. Garcia who was VERY excited to start having library classes. He organized the school library media center, added new books, and prepared exciting new lesson plans to teach his students to LOVE reading. After he had provided all of the school's teachers and administrators with the materials they needed, he was ready to start his library classes. All of the kids were thrilled to visit the library and learn about the fun things he had planned for them during the school year. Mr. Garcia reminded all students to take care of their books and to beware of the usual villains that try to destroy library books. He warned them to keep library books away from water bottles and messy food backpacks (especially in their backpacks!). He also reminded them about the hazards of loaning their library books to their friends. It's nice to share with your friends, but if a friend wants to borrow your book, it's better to ask Mr. Garcia to hold the book for them. That way, we don't have to worry about any drama between friends in case the book gets lost. After his library program presentation, all of the kids (who returned their signed permission forms AND who had clear library accounts) were able to check out books from the library. They shouted with glee and promised to care for their books. Mr. Garcia was excited and was looking forward to helping them all read happily ever after. The End (really it's just the Beginning!)
It's going to be a great year! Check back here often as it's my goal to blog or journal periodically throughout the year. I look forward to working with all of our Casey Crocodile families to ensure that kids LOVE to read. Please follow our adventures here on this website AND on Facebook and Twitter. I appreciate your support! Happy Reading Everyone!
Sincerely,
Mr. Garcia
