  ACTIVITIES


STUDENTS ENGAGE IN VARIOUS ACTIVITIES IN THE LIBRARY.  SOME OF THE ACTIVITIES ARE RECEIVING INSTRUCTION IN LITERATURE APPRECIATION, LEARNING HOW TO USE THE ONLINE PUBLIC ACCESS CATALOG, CHECKING OUT BOOKS, AND DOING EDUCATIONAL PUZZLES.  


Students in the library are now studying how the people in early Texas lived. Students will have the opportunity to view a washtub and washboard, smoothing irons, participate in making butter, view some quilts, and look at some contents from an early Texas trunk. At the New Summerfield Library we believe that providing the students with enriching experiences helps promote reading.

LEARNING THE OPAC

Students in grades 3-6 are learning to use the OPAC--the ONLINE PUBLIC ACCESS CATALOG.  Learning to use the OPAC will not only help the students become more comfortable and  efficient in using the New Summerfield Library but will also help the students to become more comfortable in other library environments, such as local public libraries.
