@WTHanes Cowboys were visited by royalty last week during our Book Character Parade! Our students definitely showed their creative sides and their love of reading! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys have been expanding their learning with @LightboxEdu eBook collections over the past 6 weeks. We explored poetry, Seasons and Weather, different types of transportation, and responsible technology use. Look at how many eBooks they checked out! @IrvingLibraries

@WTHanes Cowboys have been reading up a storm over the last 6 weeks doing research, learning about primary sources, and comparing fiction to nonfiction titles. They have created cards using AI tools and learned about Digital Citizenship. Way to go!! @IrvingLibraries

@WTHanes students were hitting the books last 6 weeks! Research and eBooks took them right through holiday break and the Book Fair was a big success! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys have been getting the most out of our library both in person and online. Library usage has soared over the past 6 weeks & we have been using Premium Digital Resources like eBooks & encyclopedias to deepen our learning. Check us out! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys are off to a great start in the library. They are so excited about our new books and have had a great time learning about how to care for and find books in the library. We are looking forward to a wonderful year of reading adventures. @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

Next week, SRC events for kids continue with a live animal demo and fun shows at Irving Library branches. See the image for details. South Library brings back Friday Night Library at 7 p.m., June 20 with a "box" car drive-in movie featuring a pup-ular crime-fighter!

Closing out the year is always bittersweet, but we are filled with pride at the growth and accomplishments of our @WTHanes Cowboys and Cowgirls. Reading colors our world as we splash into stories with @IrvingLibraries Summer Reading challenges. @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys were so busy over the past 6 weeks, we learned about gardens and growing, wrote book reviews on Beanstack @zoobeanreads, hosted the GT showcase, and went back in time. Somehow we also managed to give away over 200 free books at Literacy Night! @IrvingLibraries

@WTHanes 4th graders have been busy learning about the history and symbols of St. Patrick's Day. After a video & quiz, we wrote about one new thing we learned that we did not know before. @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes We were busy reading and learning in the library over the last 6 weeks. WHEW! STEM activities and learning about MLK and Abraham Lincoln were on the agenda. We also kicked off our BEANSTACK reading app and are logging our reading minutes. @IrvingISD @IrvingLibraries

@WTHanes Cowboys learned about MLK in the library today and were super excited to share what they were learning with pop quiz questions along the way. You know learning is happening when they are engaged! YES!!! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys were busy learning and reading last 6 weeks. Take a look at this snapshot of what we did during November and December! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes Cowboys have been reading and rocking this fall! Storytimes, STEM challenges with Lego, BeeBots, and eBooks have kept us very busy! @IrvingISD @IrvingLibraries

@WTHanes Library has been a busy place of learning and literacy! Just look at a snapshot of what's been happening! @IrvingLibraries @IrvingISD

@WTHanes 2nd grade Cowboys worked together to build Lego bridges after listening to The 3 Billy Goats Gruff. They pointed out features from the story that are clues that it is a fable, then built a bridge for the goats to cross. STEAM is happening in our @IrvingLibraries !

Thank you to Irving republican women for the lovely book donation! #hanescowboys appreciate it! @Ms_Arrieta

@WTHanes & @HaleyHornFrogs are learning about The Olympics and creating the Olympic Flag by finding rings hidden in the different collections. The trick is making sure you know where you found it, so that the Olympic Flag looks right;) @IrvingLibraries

June kicks off the summer season of storytimes at Irving Library locations, with some new offerings added to the mix. See what your local library has planned by visiting our Storytime schedule page online: CityofIrving.org/2950. #IrvingLibrary #storytime
