Glenn Library

This past month flew by...and just like that, we are two weeks away from Winter Break!

It's the most wonderful time of the year as we near the break and see the excitement of the kids for what's to come! I have loved creating the READ posters and seeing them up in the hallways, thank you so much for helping me out with this!

This month the learning will continue as I introduce and teach students how to access digital resources that are available to them, learn about winter holidays, and enjoy some great holiday stories!

May the next two weeks be merry and bright and may you all have a wonderful holiday break filled with love and joy and a happy new year!

This week I had the privilege of snapping pictures of our Glenn readers and now I would like the teachers and staff to join in on the fun too!

Glenn staff I would love to create a READ poster for each of you that can be displayed around the school so our students can see that we are readers too. You can send me a picture of yourself with one of your favorite books or I can snap a picture of you, just reach out and we can set a date and time that works for you.

Let's share our love of reading!

This month I simply wanted to remind you that this monthly SMORE is a resource too!

Each month I highlight a resource that you have access to and include a short how-to video explaining how to access the resource and describe some of its key features. I also add the SMORE from the previous month at the bottom, so that you can easily go back and access them.

Don't forget to take a moment to look over the monthly SMORE!

I have placed book orders and am including any books that have been requested in planning that we currently do not have. I will be placing a couple more orders and would like to see if you have any suggestions.

Click the button below to add your book suggestions, and I will see if it is available.

Last month, I offered the chance to win a $5 Starbucks ☕gift card to two lucky winners, but I didn't have anyone fill out the form below, so I am going to try again this month. As a token of appreciation, I want to gift two people with Starbucks gift cards just for taking the time to read my SMORE.

Please fill out the form below to enter a raffle for a chance to win. I will enter all names on Wednesday, December 18th into a digital wheel and spin to select two lucky winners!!
