These students guessed the correct amount of 63 plastic eggs. Mrs. Zellmer was shocked when she took all the change to the bank to have them count it. Library classes have been on the same day all year. Students should easily remember when their library books are due. Our library has a limited amount of fiction chapter books, and when a book is very late other children miss out on checking out that book.
Fines teach children responsibility and accountability.
Late book fines go back into the library to purchase new books or supplies that the library can use. New book shipments generally come in two or three times a school year. The Librarian and volunteers make sure all books are back on the shelves in the correct order and that any missing books are accounted for. As you can imagine this is a long project that takes time. This year library inventory will begin on Monday May 21st.
