Sessums Media Center

Sessums is ready for Literacy Week! “Building a Foundation for Success” @HillsboroughSch @SessumsHCPS #hubofschool #LiteracyWeek2025

Today Kindergarten began learning about Native American Heritage Month. They listened to Fry Bread by Kevin Maillard and then used @PlayDoh to create their own version of Fry Bread. They loved it! #hubofschool @Sessumspride

Today we read The Halloween Tree by @susanmontanari and the kids loved it! Then they chose a holiday and decorated their tree. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

Who said science is boring?! Not these kids! This small group of 2nd graders explored force and friction using @LEGO_Education push cars in the media center. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS @HCPSElemScience

Today we had the pleasure of being visited by @kentrellmartin and the kids absolutely loved him! Thanks for sharing your stories with us. It’s amazing how much the kids learned in a short amount of time. #hubofschool @Sessumspride @SessumsHCPS

Pumpkins are starting to arrive! I can’t wait to see all the creative ideas the students come up with. #hubofschool @Sessumspride

Tomorrow is the first SSYRA 3-5 Facebook Live Author Event! #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

It’s been a long 5 days of orientations. The Graphic Novel section barely survived! 🤣 #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

One author visit scheduled and another in the works! There is nothing better than students getting to meet authors/illustrators in person. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS @HillsboroughSch

Third grade has been learning about animal coverings and adaptations so today we read Look Again:Secrets of Animal Camouflage. Then students had to camouflage their butterfly and hide it in our ocean scene. @SessumsHCPS #hubofschool

We were having so much fun I forgot to take pictures! 🤦‍♀️ 2nd graders are learning about the Southeast in class so we read Whoosh! Lonnie Johnson’s Super-Soaking Stream of Inventions (since he is from Alabama) then we built our own cotton ball poppers. @SessumsHCPS #hubofschool

Today we talked about commitment. We read Sam and Dave Dig a Hole then we went outside and dug into our eggs to find a treasure. Summer is so fun! @SessumsHCPS #hubofschool

Today's Library Week giveaway is a 2-for-Tuesday Special: a copy of Framed! and a copy of City Spies. If you're a librarian and want to enter for a chance to win, retweet and make sure you follow me. @SimonKIDS @SSEdLib (Congratulations to yesterday's winner @lathan_lmc.)

It's Library Week 2023! (If ever a group deserved one, it's librarians in 2023.) If you're a librarian and want to enter for a chance to win a boxed set of my Framed! series, retweet and make sure you follow me. (If you retweet with a comment, that enters you twice.) @SSEdLib

I should be getting ready to score the baseball game but instead you can find me starting my first 2023-2024 @FloridaSSYRA book! Isn’t it the cutest?! #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

SLAM is finally here! Another fun day seeing art, watching videos, and meeting authors. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

Lots of students had fun celebrating meeting their reading goals today. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

First grade fun! We read The Three Silly Billies, counted coins, and then tried to design a raft that could carry a goat. #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS

I stopped @TractorSupply on the way home to buy 3 (plastic) goats. I can’t wait for 1st grade to see what we are doing tomorrow! #hubofschool @SessumsHCPS #STEM @HillsboroughSch

Was today the Color Run or were we making a zombie movie on the field?!🤣
