Our Summer Reading Kickoff was a huge success! From face painting and free books to artwork and read alouds—it was such a fun celebration! @MeyerLib_SD735, @MediaCenter735, and I want to thank everyone who shared the joy today. @Skokie735 (more pictures to come!)
Join us on May 31 from 5-6 PM for our amazing summer reading kickoff, featuring Jarrett Dapier, @alexdwillan, and @CozbiHandmade!
Who will win the staring contest? Third graders studied, then coded Dash in order to write simile poems all about him!

Spotted: Ms. Viola Swamp, Harry Potter, Rainbow Fish, Waldo, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and artists galore. Middleton students and teachers had so much fun dressing up as their favorite book characters for #ReadAcrossAmerica!

Our own leader @HightowerSD735 is paying tribute to Bessie Coleman from @VashtiHarrison’s Little Leaders …celebrating Women’s History Month and Dress Like a Book Character Day all in one! @Skokie735 #LiteracyMonthSD735
Nearly thirty 5th graders kicked off #ReadAcrossAmerica week with a party to celebrate their participation in the Illinois Rebecca Caudill Award. These students voted on their favorite book, enjoyed treats, and even received a free book to take home!
Please join us on February 28 from 6:30-7:30 PM for our Pajama Party Family Reading Night! RSVP here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
Fourth graders met via Zoom with author Anita Sanchez to discuss her newest book "Meltdown: Discover Earth's Irreplaceable Glaciers and Learn What You Can Do to Save Them." They asked deeply thoughtful and empathic questions about how to protect our planet.
Fourth graders completed their genre unit by "breaking out" of the library. Students had to work together to sort books, complete puzzles, and crack codes in order to save the day. Look at their excitement!

The first graders walked in to class with @MediaCenter735 as we were finishing up a library meeting… and then they spotted their librarian from kindergarten! They love @MeyerLib_SD735 so much. 🥰📚🥹 Our libraries are full of joy in @Skokie735!
Fifth graders researched stars, then put on their astronaut gear and traveled to outer space via green screen. The accompanying stories they wrote detailed the many adventures on the way!
We were so lucky to have author @KeklaMagoon visit our fifth graders yesterday! They loved hearing about her new book, Chester Keene Cracks the Code, and all about her writing journey. Thank you for spending your time with us @KeklaMagoon!
We are loving our new LEGO wall! Thanks @Nikki_Tammaru for encouraging collaboration and creativity in our library!

Thank you to everyone who shopped and/or volunteered at the Middleton Book Fair! The students were all smiles -- and so were the teachers, who got to choose free books for their classrooms. 📚😍
