For K-3 Students (name - sippican, password - read)

Sippican kids are phenomenal readers! Look how many books have been checked out since September! 😮❤️👍🎉📚#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor I love returning to the library after Town Meeting to find books have been returned with a lovely note! Happy Friday! 📚❤️👍🗒️#sippicanspecialists #sippicanschool #weareor Our Winter Reading Challenge is underway! Between now and February 17 students may fill out their “Reading Passports” as they complete various reading experiences. We wanted the emphasis this year to be on CHOOSING to spend extra time with books. I hope everyone participates! Challenge yourself to complete the entire passport and return it to the school library to be entered in a raffle drawing for gift certificates to the upcoming Book Fair. 👍📚❤️🌎#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor We have a two week trial with Marty the Robot that begins today and he is SO MUCH FUN! He can be used unplugged for our pre-readers (he has color sensors in his feet) and with Scratch for our oldest students. I’d love to bring him to Sippican as part of our technology/coding lessons! ❤️👍🤖 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor We were so excited to host Bill Harley today! Students have been learning about the art of storytelling during library classes for the past few weeks, and have had a chance to listen to different storytellers. Thank you to @sippicanvase for sponsoring this event! 👍🎤🎼📚❤️#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor This is how I feel every time I go into a library or bookstore! What books have YOU started reading in 2023? ❤️📚#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor I keep telling the kids that the crabs move - it’s just that they are nocturnal so we never see them. Well! We caught Snickers out and about today for a quick drink. Everyone was VERY excited! ❤️👍🦀 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor I am SO THANKFUL for the group of 6th graders that made these amazing decorations for the library doors! So much hard work and recess that they spent getting the nutcracker just right! Thanks, friends! 📚❤️👍#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor Our students love to check the New Book shelf when they come in. This week I’m really excited about the titles. Gorgeous book from Susan Cooper and a perfect winter choice from Lu Fraser. And who doesn’t love Jarrett Lerner’s books? ❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor We are serious about taking care of our collection and making sure that the books last a LONG time. This has been a year-round favorite and has been checked out a whopping 156 times!! After many repairs it is finally time to officially “retire” this copy. Time to get a new one! ❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor BOOKS bring me joy - and the privilege of working with all of our students and staff. It’s so sweet to see what students are adding to our JOY bulletin board this week. ❤️📚👍#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor It’s our last day of Hour of Code and by FAR the favorite has been the Python challenge from Compute It! Almost everyone in this 4th grade class chose it as their challenge! If you want to hear kids asking each other for help, or offering to help someone out, or for organic teamwork to take place, give them an Hour of Code to work through! It is SO rewarding! ❤️👍💻 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor #hourofcode2022 Hour of Code continues! Our first grade students have a choice between Scratch Jr. and codeSpark. They are ROCKING these challenges! Future computer scientists here, for sure! ❤️💻👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor #hourofcode2022 It’s one of our favorite weeks of the year - the Global Hour of Code! All classes are working with different coding options during library - from codeSpark to all of the options on these choice boards. Some of our 4th graders were rocking it today working together and creating their own programs! 👍💻 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor When we aren’t using the board for class work I have it scrolling through cozy posters for reading, designed by @alexandria_lib! (Don’t worry - it usually stays on each image for 10 seconds.🥰) It really makes the space feel welcoming and makes ME wish I could sit down with a good book! ❤️📚👍❄️#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor More of my orders arrived today! Check out these new titles that we’re adding to the collection. I’m especially excited for the new editions of the Eyewitness books and the titles from some of our favorite authors (Kelly Yang, Jarrett Lerner, Dan Santat, and Ian Falconer I’m looking at you!). ❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor How lucky am I? Two sweet notes and TWO lovely flowers today (one not pictured). Our students are the best! (I especially love the book diagram on the first note.)🥰❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor So much to be GRATEFUL for today in our library! My book orders arrived from Ingram and we have so many fantastic new titles coming to the shelves. I’m especially excited about the new picture books from @circleroundpodcast - we love their folktales from around the world. ❤️👍📚#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor It’s time for the Traveling Mural Project! We’ve participated in this global citizenship project since 2018. It’s a great chance to create something as a community that represents our school. Thanks to Ms. Pike for designing the mural! We’ve also been exploring our partner schools using Google Earth and checking out last year’s mural displayed on the bulletin board. 👍🌎🎨#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor #travelingmural2022 Our kindergarten students are learning what we can do with our iPads at school, and how it is different from screen time at home. We’ve learned our school expectations and practiced using Boom Cards and Khan Kids. Everyone’s doing a fantastic job! 👍📲#sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor Our STEAM class this afternoon started working with Beebots! We did a few practice “expeditions” together and got the Bot to visit the Cafe, the Bakery, and the Post Office on our floor map. We even got to debug our code when we made a mistake! 👍🤖🐝 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor I got this note from a student today! How sweet! I’m so happy to know that students feel seen and safe in our space. ❤️❤️❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor We were all ready for school EARLY today because of the time change. Came downstairs to find these two enjoying their books! Hope YOU have a library book that you are enjoying just as much! ❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor Really excited to add these new series to our library collection! I selected many of the Acorn and Branches books from @scholasticbookfairs and I’m working away behind the scenes to catalog and process them all. Look for the new displays on the spinning racks soon! ❤️📚👍 #sippicanschool #sippicanspecialists #weareor
