First Grade Soil Centers

All of our first grade classes visited the Fox Run Library this week to investigate soil.

Like scientists, they investigated the properties of soil samples...


...they observed earthworms...


...they looked through a microscope, and they listened to an article about soil from PebbleGo on our computers.






Way to go, first grade!

Our Fall Book Fair is Coming Soon!

Hi fantastic foxes! Our fall Scholastic book fair is coming soon! November 4-8, from 8 am-4 pm you can shop for great books and support our school library at the same time!

 

If you click on that picture, you can see a preview of some of the books we'll have at our book fair, and choose ahead of time what you want for your student.

We also need parent volunteers. We couldn't even have the book fair without parent volunteers to help our students shop. If you can help us please click here to sign up for a 2-hour shift. Don't worry--we'll show you what to do, we'll be right there with you, and we'll have fun!

Thank you for supporting our Fox Run library!

The Scholastic Book Fair is back in our library! The book fair will be open Monday through Friday, 8 am  to 4 pm. We'll stay open until 6 pm on Wednesday evening for Math Night!


We have a Dr. Seuss photo booth set up so you can take a photo of your students with your smart phone.

Friday, March 1 is a special day. It's Dr. Seuss' birthday and Read Across America day. Your student can wear a Seuss costume to school and pick up a free pencil or eraser at the book fair!
