These children are members of Mrs. Lamb's Year 3 / 4 Literacy group.  They are studying
instructional texts.  After reading the instructions the children  worked to construct their masks.  A range of reading, understanding and oral skills were used.

Our library is open to the children throughout the school daily during term time.  Children may take any fiction book home, while non-fiction books can be taken to the classroom.
The library also houses an Internet computer as an
additional resource.
