Today was a very action packed day. First of all, it's the last day of school before spring break so all the kids are a little wild to begin with. As if that's not enough, the weather outside is beautiful so all the kids are anxious to get out of school. Throughout the day I saw 9 total classes in the library; three fifth grade, three first grade, and three kindergarten classes. This was the second library meeting of the week for everyone so it was book checkout time for all the classes. I spent the majority of my day checking in, renewing, and checking out books to students. When I had a spare moment, I was able to help some of the younger students find the books they were looking for. I also shelved some books during the break between two of the fifth grade classes.
The fifth grade classes were working on state projects in which they needed a library book on their particular state. I was able to help some of the fifth graders find information on their states and listen to what they already had done and answer any questions they may have had. I was very impressed with how helpful some of the first graders were. I had two first grade students in one of the classes not leave my side the entire time their class was in the library. They were helping me with names of students, looking on the computer, and putting books on the cart. Overall it was a good day and I am very much looking forward to my spring break.
elementary hours today: 7.5
