Book Exchange Party



This Thursday, May 23rd, all Union Hill students are invited to participate in a Book Exchange Party.  Students can begin bringing in their gently used books now (no more than 3 per student please).  On the day of the party, students will receive a ticket indicating how many books they donated, and that's the number of new books they will get to pick out.  Students will come at various times during the school day with their grade level.

Hopefully everyone will get at least 1 new book to read this summer!

Schedule for Book Exchange Party:
8:15- 1st Grade
9:00- Kindergarten
10:45- 2nd Grade
12:15- 3rd Grade
1:30- 5th Grade
2:00- 4th Grade

After school, teachers can come to the library to exchange a new book!


Spring Book Fair



We had another very successful Book Fair this past week!  Students enjoyed shopping for new books to read this summer.  The theme was Story Laboratory- Reading Gives You Power!  Our school is lucky to have a library that is spacious which makes setting up and decorating for the Book Fair fun! 


Our raffle was a huge success too!  I will be announcing the raffle winners tomorrow on our school broadcast!



What was your favorite book that you got at the Book Fair?  I hope you were able to stock up on some fun, new books!  Remember that this week we will have our Book Exchange Party where students can trade out their gently used books for new books!



With the money that we earned from Scholastic, we were able to give about 80 students a free book!  We also had enough money to get several new books to add to our library collection.
