Trailer Tuesday

Museum of Thieves Book Trailer
One of the student library aides put this book on her recommended list.  It looks really interesting, so I though I would share it with you all!Thanks EE for sharing your pick with us.

First Week

I hope everyone had a great first week back!  The library is coming along and looking fabulous!  Thanks to the help of some great moms, we will be ready to check out fiction on Monday.  The ILA classes will be coming in next week to get oriented and check out books, and I'm so glad we will be ready for them.
Here are some pics of those hard working moms I was telling you about:

Thanks so much, ladies, for making us look MARVELOUS!

New Shelves!

So, if you came by to meet your locker tonight, you noticed some changes in the library.  Besides the new librarian, there are new (and taller) shelves.  We are working very hard to get books on the new shelves, but there are still many boxes around the library.  Here is the progress of what has been going on.

You can see that these new shelves were built from scratch!

These are the guys who built the shelves.

There were a lot of boxes!

With the help of Mr. and Mrs. Watson, the boxes began to find their correct homes.

Getting better!

Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Chetty were working hard for Griffin Library!

The Hunger Games

Have you read Hunger Games?  Are you psyched to see the movie in March?  If you haven't read this amazing book by Suzanne Collins, come on in and let's get you a copy!

Welcome!

Welcome to the Gators Read blog! I am Mrs. Chetty, the new librarian at Griffin Middle School, and this is a blog for you to keep yourself updated with all of the latest goings on in the Griffin Library.  I hope that you will stop by and introduce yourself so I can get to know you and learn about your favorite books.  You are welcome to comment here, as well.
I am currently thinking of a contest for our first week of school.  Let  me know what you think!
