The Library is not like most classrooms. We may have to share our space with other classes, students that are studying, and others that may be working on something very important. That it is important that we learn how to be a good library citizens. This week the 2nd grade will start the unit about Good Library Citizenship. Students will learn why it is neccessary to follow Library safety and discuss what possible rules citizens can follow in the Library.

The first lesson students will listen to the story Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathmann. After the story is readed, students will have an opportunity to play Safety Tip Order with Officer Buckle and Gloria off of Library Web Site.



The next week, students will have an opportunity to help create Library rules. Students will break out in groups of five and brainstorm answers for the following questions:
How can we be safe in the Library?
What can be some Library rules?
How can we make the Library a better place?
What would Officer Buckle say if he saw us being Good Library Citizens?


Towards the of class- each group will present their answers and select their best two. Mrs. C will then take the best ideas from each group and create an idea collage. The idea collage will be on display all year in the Library for other grades to see.
