Day One

13 kids came to the first day of Summer Reading Club 2009.





We began the day with building creatively with Legos and Duplos.


The word of the day is "Architecture." We said it, we clapped it, we slapped it, we snapped it, we stomped it." How many syllables does Architecture have? FOUR!

We colored pictures of buildings and structures.











On display are posters of famous buildings and the Brooklyn Bridge provided by Picturing America.

Summer Program bags were passed out and filled with book marks, a coupon for free tator tots at Sonic (Sonic is a big supporter of Oklahoma's summer library program), a reading log and stickers.

I read A HOUSE IS A HOUSE FOR ME to the group and they added the title to their reading log. Read 5 books and get a prize from the treasure chest.

Next stop, outside on the playground with 3-D chalk and glasses.










There were three cameras for students to take pictures with. We rotated taking photographs, wearing the 3-D glasses and drawing with the 3-D chalk. Before we knew it, it was time to wash our hands and get ready for lunch.

Our school participates in the summer free lunch program. Children under 18 eat lunch free during the month of June. When they are done eating they can come back to the library to read books, check out books with their parents and get prizes for the books they've read.

It was 1:00 before we knew it. First day was really fun. Tomorrow is a field trip to see Chester the Clown.
