Full house...

Today was busy. We had a full house of third and fourth graders today during their lunch time. I imagine the cafeteria felt a bit empty then as these middle elementary students were all in the library. What for? You may well imagine. About a half dozen were there to help stamp books, dust with our cool brightly colored fuzzy dusters, shelve books, rearrange some materials stored on carts . Some of our regulars are Tabby, April, Emma, and Hannah. Today they were joined by Noelle. They come often, along with some of our fifth graders (see a previous post), and pitch in wherever they are needed. The rest were in to return and check out more books. I have been pleasantly surprised to see how many students are coming down during their lunch times on days in between their weekly class library time to trade the book they are finished with for a new one. What a blessing to see our students developing into such avid readers!
