LIBRARY - Valley View Elementary
Library in...
We will also be enjoying more books and learning more library skills and literary skills. The students will participate in a MakerSpace each week during part of their library class time. This is a time when they can build, create, and explore in the library.
We will also talk about our School to School school in Zambia and get to know them a little better and their culture. This is ongoing all year.
