This week, I've helped Mrs. Deep shelve the books that had been returned. Mrs. Deep have been VERY busy this week with testing Kindergarten students on the K-2 Literacy Program. I offered to help with the testing for the K-2 Literacy, but Mrs. Deep requested that I help her stay caught up with shelving books. Mrs. Dickerson, the parapro for the library, handled the Fiction books this week while I took care of the Nonfiction books. We had a LOT of books being returned this week. I'm guessing that students read their books over the last week when we were out due to the hurricane. I guess they didn't have any other options since the power was out!
Personally, I love shelving books. I get so busy and caught up with all the work and activities that are going on in my life. However, when I shelve books, I'm able to take a jump back into my own childhood. I pick up a book to return it to the shelf and I can remember reading the same book when I was younger. I also love interacting with the students in the library during this time too. Most students will ask you to help them find a book that they will enjoy. I love the challenge of being able to be part of the reason why a child learns to love to read.
