this is our first book buzz of the new year it is and actually i was going to start out by i was going to have my coat and everything on because it's the first day and probably only the second day  first it's the first book was up to two thousand and seventeen right but weather wise it's like probably the coldest day we've had yet because you had such a such a mild you know winter so for burr that's what i was going to  bundle up which i may still do if it gets i don't think it gets cold down here though i think maybe it does oh i think it does what ever so also for the new year i told you i wanted to do a new tagline for you i know like something else to say i didn't come up with it yet i don't accept that i thought about it but then i thought oh my gosh you know it just so much going on at the library and all this all the stuff i haven't yet so  show maybe we'll have a by then no we won't because we're taping it right after we tape you know they will come though ok yeah i'll be thinking about it all right so happy new year anyway but it is winter it is cold but it's a great time to come to the library we are now starting our winter programs will be officially starting on january ninth and we have something for much every single day of the week for our little ones so you can come for our story times and all that fun stuff  it a piece of cheese and i didn't want cheese breath so i put it and so whatever we have a lot going on and that's what we talk about in book because we talk about the things that we have going on we talk about you know new books or things of interest around the world or whatever so we are asking that you stay through the whole book bus to make sure that you get all of the information you never know what will happen next twenty five minutes they exactly you know what you don't want to miss it anyway so it's we did have that show on your local television network but who say yeah it's very limited right so we're going to do news around the world yet and it's going on today all right around the globe with miss linda  i'm going to do another tagline for that too i think ok because i you know i like giving around the world information and sometimes i found really cool things about libraries and different countries but also you know i find these great articles and things about that encourage literacy and reading which is important and if i could spread the messages around the world how so that you know if i could spread the library love around the around the world that's what this is all about library love around the world and the reason i say that today is because that's what i'm doing now i'm going to a couple handled a missile and the like are going to test  super busy so it's hard to read and specially read it was or so i know i spun is so such a great job and we read as much as we can write and some people have come up have you had what  must have a great job would be so much fun to work in the library and be able to read all day i wished it so yeah and i even you know we get our half hour breaks and almost everybody in the library all the employees are are flipping through books ok new year's resolution minor of the usual so i'm going to talk about you have your resolutions right now and type no this isn't mine ok i was in this are not mine so i can skip over mine but new year's resolution i found this on line regarding reading and it's for children and what i like about it is even though it's dated two thousand and fourteen it applies to any year i want to show a picture of this paper for teachers because i think this is really cool and i want to tell you what it says so i don't know who wants it ok so let me just and it's a very short you can hand this out to your children and i know that all the teachers want there to are students to read more especially you know the librarians and librarians work together with the teachers et this is a new year's reading resolutions number one this year i plan to read blank books each month how many books you know it asks for so they have to fill this is stuff that there's blanks and they have to fill it in number two i will keep track of the books i read and you have to check one are you going to keep track in a notebook and a reading journal or other that's been my weakness is that i don't track them as well i was on good reads i was really good about i love glitterati and that and then i got away from that your back all right number four a new series that i want to try this year is try to get them right no let them think about something that they haven't read your making me think yeah i know it does then i think what haven't i that looks kind of interesting that may or may not be what i'm writing to reading ok i will read books written by new to me authors ok so the first one was pick a series this one's pick a new offer which is good always always  for this they even give a little hint for that and it says ask a teacher or a classmate a parent ask around for recommendations for authors who recently read a good book so and you know what i do that too i go oh my thinks you know and you'll pull it whether it's children's books or that you are adult books number six i will read books in new to me john is housed there you know and they get what  on here for the kids it gives the list of genres like poetry historical fiction science fiction fantasy autobiography biography mystery etc and gives them like food for thought of what they read like as an example i'm i used to be but i'm not really so much anymore like big mystery you know or stuff like that so but every now and then i like to grab one  also it says a little i will and i think you have to either initial or check it off it says i will read at least two chapters or ten pages of each book before i leave it that's a problem don't i think adults do this too they give up on it before they even really have gotten into it you know it doesn't sometimes a book just doesn't suck you in you know but if you would  just have gone a little bit further perhaps she would have loved that come up a lot in my book club because they'll be books and in a book club that's wonderful because you're exposed to all these different things the books that you normally wouldn't  get into it after you know but not always but the nice thing is if you read it and you don't like it that's good too right you know that's an opinion that something if you would have read something and didn't really like it tell me why i maybe maybe i would i want to hear that all right the next one is i will use self monitoring strategies like connecting and questioning while i read to make sure i am understanding a text so that developing their literacy and their those skills and the last one i will try to find the questions i have about what i read try to find the questions so you know they're really making them suggesting that the kids down and take it in you know like when we see our tutors like holly when she comes in and i hear her stop every so often and question that when question that that paragraph or what you know and let the child come up with the answers and the and to teach them the question right you know yeah because sometimes you just read it and go ok yeah it was a good book ok all right what do you think new year's resolution i like their kids all right wait till the next your maker mondays are we offering you do you know many many seventeen it is a new well you know the big thing if you read anything on line this is happening at schools everywhere it's happening in public libraries where they are developing make or spaces because they want kids to come in and learn by doing hands on  yes being creative and experimenting right and do that a lot of that was new to me too and we learn as new faces come through you know we start you know educating ourselves and studying and practicing like i've practiced with you know several of the things that often make you make yeah that we have talked about that and so we decided that we're going to do maker mondays and we are inviting kids walk over from mcmurry after school and it's going to start at four o'clock and it's only like forty five minutes i think it's not that long where they're going to we're going to have a theme each week  something particular they're going to work with everybody or work with it in the learn about it and the other thing it's not a huge commitment it's twice a month so twice a month stop at the library specially in the winter you know who want to go home and what do you do it's not like i you know you go out so make or mondays so next monday our program start up that will be the first maker monday and we are working wish i would have thought to bring one i because remember i took all those home to experiment right family and even the real little ones one of the kids it's just in kindergarden liked it was interesting so we're working with  well i'll talk about the next one but yeah i'll talk about the next one next time awesome so those of us monday four o'clock mary students come on over that's what we need or anybody i mean it's the tween age would be defined as well we've been talking a most of my gosh for a couple years every week yet it has been already a partnership that we have and it's continuing on into the new year of course and now i would really feel bad if any child could not identify the name of this dog as some well you know i'm not and no child five five enough i'll say true and it you know actually because the kids should know the years it was his fiftieth birthday it was i think it sounds about right it was a big birthday it was a it was so much he's an old dog he's old so yes so he's been around for generations and he also is these start  a wonderful show on p b s kids so we're going to have a night with all clifford stuff now i will make sure i say this i know

about josh and gavin their entire bowling this is also a book that has to do with bully it's called to all the boys i've loved before and it's about a girl and every time she's a little boy crazy so i hope she has a crush or she thinks she's in love or she goes on a date or whatever she writes a letter to that boy keeps in her diary ok and now some of them are just like maybe you know the guy at target smiled at her so she thought that was cute so then sent to those boys and she's being picked on about it and all her secrets are you know and like i said some of them were like wasn't she like she talked about that right i might i mean i know i'm not that age group but the devastation you know you can relate yeah i mean i mean just anyone can relate to the well actually of my daughter and your thoughts you know yes more thoughts are exposed yeah  close but let's let's mention quickly a couple other things that are coming up we want you to see the b f g o l dall dall he that came out

excited i have to start about six forty five to give you a chance to get home and get over there right yeah i'm excited i doing a magic school bus science survey loves most for is the one all the crazy things that she does with the school in the school bus to run a great series doing programs on monday nights that have to do with the magic school bus and she's doing programs on thursday nights th home as well as well usually does things with stuff that people have in their home or can get and yeah of the kids can and even it out it's really cool because i have right there's times that she's made something that you would have the stuff and you  would have the things or be able to easily get them and i just look at it go how the heck did you make that right you know just so very cool so make sure you sign up for that so we have the magic school bus on mondays and then the science of air on thursdays  six o'clock in the evening i also want to mention just it's all ages but having said that i mean we have some ones in there but with these programs they're very short the parents are an adult  know caregiver what is required to be there with them so that's that's the thing with that and i've been getting one more thing about registering i have the last couple days i think because the programs are going to be starting i get calls about the programs you talk about the programs when they are and then the next question do i have to come in to register and the answer everybody needs to know no you d register somehow either be in person or on the phone yeah we haven't done you know registering by e mail yet like the adult department does but a quick phone call will get you on the on the list it's just more it's a headcount and you know if we do things like this if miss lind you know has five people sign up and twelve show up she's not going to enough and she may not have enough we always do extra but it's not guaranteed right so that's all for the business and i do book now yes but what i thought this one we haven't read the story back and forth ok in a while so we're going to read this ok and me me weak when i read it i was just like oh my gosh every mother should buy
