Global Arts Plus Upper Library

It's National Library Week! Donors Choose is doubling all donations for books for libraries. Please help me provide fun and beautiful books for my students. donorschoose.org/project/pictur…

ITEM/MLA is our state library association. The keynote speaker on Thursday was librarian Mychal Threets whose social media Library Joy posts have gone viral. He gave an inspirational talk about "library kids," freedom to read, and mental health.

Help me give the students at Global Arts the book series they love! Tomorrow - Thursday October 3 - sonic is doubling all donations to book projects. donorschoose.org/project/the-re…

On April 27, some GAPU students attended the Teen Lit Con. They met authors, attended workshops and presentations, made crafts, and hung out with friends. One of our groups even won a book contest against the authors! A day filled with books and fun. @spps_library @ChreeseJones

Some Mpls. school administrators want to bring back licensed librarians, bucking a trend of slashing the positions from payrolls during tight budget times. Professional librarians, they say, help kids learn everything from technology to how to research. startribune.com/bringing-libra…

Ms. Turner’s 5th grade creating and exploring with Lego WeDo in the GAPU Library. They made a pollinator! @ChreeseJones @spps_library

School Library Month may be coming to an end, but the impact of our @SPPS_News Library Media Specialists(Librarians) will continue to inspire students. Thank you to our Library Media Specialists for your hard work and commitment to our students!

Awesome science research by GAPU 6th graders. They learned so much about Minnesota's resources and put it all together into these beautiful one-pagers.

At Global Arts Plus Upper, we love to read! 5th graders explore books in their favorite genres. @spps_library @ChreeseJones @kate_kreitzer

Teamwork, problem-solving, exploration, and FUN! Ms. Kreitzer’s 5th graders practice their inquiry skills while coding and building robots with Lego WeDo in the GAPU library. @spps_library @ChreeseJones @kate_kreitzer

In the GAPU library, Ms. Hunt’s 7th graders put the finishing touches on their History Day projects. As the library media specialist, I appreciate the depth and complexity of this research, and I love how proud they are of their accomplishment. They should be! @spps_library

Ms. Dailey's language academy students practiced their language skills while collaborating, creating, problem-solving, and having fun with the Lego robots during library time. @spps_library @ChreeseJones

The Global Arts Upper Library has a new look! Fiction books are now organized by genre. This makes it easier for students to find their favorite books and even discover some new favorites. @spps_library @ChreeseJones
