Quarterly news from PRMS Library
Volume 5, Issue 1
Welcome to the library's newsletter. I share news at the end of each nine weeks. As always, let me know if you have suggestions!
What's new?
Mobile Game Cart
Thanks to PROF, the PRMS Library now has a mobile game collection. This cart or individual games can be borrowed to use in your classroom for a team activity, reward, etc. Or you can bring students to the library to play. Let me know if you're interested!
Library Happenings
Reader Personality Quiz
Mrs. Pursley's reading classes took a Reader Personality Quiz to find out what type of books they might enjoy, analyzed their results, and then browsed collections curated for each style. Take the quiz yourself to get your own recommendations!
Have you seen ...
The Teachers
I recently finished reading "The Teachers," a book published last spring about the stresses of teaching. You would likely relate to many of the stories in this book, which follows several teachers throughout a recent school year. Let me know if you want to borrow it!

The Hunger Games has never really lost its popularity, but it is experiencing new interest due to the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes prequel movie, which comes to theaters next month. We have multiple copies of the book, which tells the origin story of President Snow, in the library. Check out the trailer below!
