A wild time in the library! 🐾 Thank you to @texaswildlife for an engaging Skins & Skulls presentation. Students became wildlife detectives, identifying mammals by their skulls while learning habitats, diets & survival adaptations! @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES @baverticalteam

April is School Library Month and I need to brag on the librarians of Dallas ISD @DISD_Libraries . What they're doing for students across this district isn't just impressive. It's transformational. A thread about the REAL impact happening in Dallas ISD libraries every single day. 🧵👇 #SchoolLibraryMonth #DallasISD @NicoleWBixby @DrElenaSHill @Dallasacademics

Students traveled the world from the comfort of our library! The Maps & Stamps presentation was a fun, hands-on way to build literacy, curiosity, and global learning all at once! 🌏📚 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries

Big thanks to @UnitedWay & @atmosenergy for an amazing Ready Day! 📚 The students were so excited to be read to, asked great questions, and fully enjoyed the stories. Nothing better than seeing young minds light up with joy! 💕 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries

March Madness is HERE in the @CasaViewES library! 📚🏀 Classes are battling in our Reading Bracket - every minute counts! The winning class earns an Ice Cream Sundae Party. 🍨 Let the reading madness begin! @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

One of the BEST library moments? ✨ Overhearing a group of friends-once reluctant readers-huddled together, swapping graphic novels and excitedly sharing their favorite parts. 📚 Stories build community, and I love seeing it happen! 💕 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

Our Casa View Eagles loved the "Birds of a Feather" presentation by @texaswildlife. They had a great time learning fun facts, identifying birds, researching, and even measuring wingspans! Talk about spreading their wings! 🦅 @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES

Thanks to @Scholastic for making it possible to use our Scholastic Dollars on new Dog Man and Diary of a Wimpy Kid books! Our students couldn't wait to get their hands on them! 📚✨ @DISD_Libraries @CasaViewES

A huge thank you to Book Drive for Kids! Our students were over the moon to choose their very own books to add to their home libraries. This gift sparks a lifelong love of reading- literally priceless! 📚❤️ @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

Our library transformed into a math lab! First graders read "Round is a Tortilla", then became shape detectives! Working in teams to find shapes hidden in plain sight. They celebrated every discovery and the excitement was priceless!🔍 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

Our students kicked off Hispanic Heritage Month by exploring the life of Frida Kahlo! ✨ We read books, learned what inspired her iconic portraits, and shared amazing facts in thoughtful discussions. A colorful start to the month! 📚🎨 @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries
