Capri Elementary School Library

@MrsBerliner_ @genzshows Looks like a great Podcast!

This week we started listening to @genzshows’ podcast, Six Minutes. For most (if not all) of my Ss, this is the first podcast they’ve ever listened to. At first, they were a little unsure. “Are there pictures?! You’re *sure* there’s no video that goes with this??”

I love this! 1st graders left hearts and messages of encouragement in the library books this week for other students to find. #KindnessMatters @Capri_Cougars

Excited to partner with @SanJoseSharks to introduce the FIRST-EVER #SJSharks library card. Get your card at any #SJPL location starting Mon., Feb. 4. GO SHARKS! 🏒sjpl.org/sjsharks #RightToLibrary #SJPLSharks #Stealthmode

It's #NationalReadAloudDay I'll be reading Bugs in My Hair by David Shannon to @missmancuso4 3rd grade class. @Capri_Cougars

Events like Happy Birds are so much fun! Here a few snaps from a recent event at the Edenvale Branch. If you're looking to join in on the fun, there are plenty more events coming up! bit.ly/happybirdssjpl

Great Podcast about how Libraries are a real "Room of Requirement" Libraries aren't just for books. They're often spaces that transform into what you need them to be. .thisamericanlife.org/664/the-room-o… @Capri_Cougars
