Adrienne Gear in the house!

I was so excited to be a part of a special presentation that was put on today in our school library for the Dixon Staff.  Adrienne Gear, who is a well known Reading and Writing guru in the lower mainland came to share her wonderful tools with many of the teachers today.  She had great ideas and practical lessons, that I am sure will start being used in classrooms soon.

On a different note, I am finding that some books are coming back into the library wet, ripped or just plain damaged.  I will be talking to the students about book care and respect for the items they borrow from the library.  Please encourage your kids to think about a safe place for books to stay while at home, and also make sure books are not stuffed into bags close to liquids.

Thank you for your help and support!
