For the next month the library classes will be exploring the world of Folklore literature. We will be reading and exploring different versions of traditional folktales. I am finding that even the older students haven't been exposed to many of the different traditional stories we may be familiar with. I hope to open up a world of traditional stories that have been passed down from cultures across the world.
This week the Huckleberry and Clarkia classes filled in a poster sized T-Chart labeling all the elements of fiction and non-fiction texts. They are becoming experts on these text elements.
The Alder classes are continuing their research skill development through OSLIS (Oregon School Library System). With so many different resources available on the web it can be overwhelming to find a primary source. This week we found out that OSLIS can cut down on the sorting and make finding the right source easier. Remember there is a link to the OSLIS site on the side bar of this blog. The username is: molalla and the password is: oslis. I hope that you use this great resource with your students.
