Another Busy Week In Media

This week in the Library Kindergarten students were treated to the wonderful stories by Alexandra Day all about Carl the Dog.

First graders worked on reviewing parts of a book and then looking more closely at the Table of Contents and Index and how they are used to locate information in a non-fiction book. We have been spending more of the Library Media time on the computers, as well as, doing a variety of activities.

Second graders looked into both Table of Contents and Index like the first graders just more indebt, but they also began learning what a dictionary is for and how it is organized. Some second grade classes spent time on the computer doing an online activity that allowed them to place words in alphabetical order.

Third graders wrapped up their Hamster projects and began looking into the ways a dictionary is organized, paying special attention to guide words and alphabetical order.

Fourth graders completed their Power Point projects and endangered Microsoft Word posters this week. Some students in the fourth grade are looking into movie editing in Movie Maker.

Firth graders completed their Power Point projects as partners and are now creating a simple PowerPoint project all about themselves by themselves. Also some fifth graders are learning how to use the computer Thesaurus.

All in all it has been a very busy week in Library Media!
