Dear McKelvie Families~

The upcoming week will be short but packed with a lot of energy and fun at McKelvie School!  Tuesday is our Move-A-Thon assembly.  This past week kids were given their Move-A-Thon raffle tickets to put in the baskets of their choice.  There were nearly 30 baskets to choose from!  All prizes will be raffled off at the assembly.  Tuesday is also twin/triplet/multiple day.  Kids can pair or group up and dress alike.  The fifth and sixth grade classes with the most participation will win a prize!

Important Dates:
November 26th: Move-A-Thon Assembly and Twin/Triplet/Multiple Day
November 27th-29th No School Thanksgiving Break
December 10th-Afternoon at the Movies-ELF

Safety Issue:

Traffic during parent pick-up is continuing to be problematic.  We have had parents drive the wrong way into both the County Rd. and Liberty Hill Rd. parking lots in order to go around the traffic.  Entering through the exit is very dangerous and can cause an accident.  Please enter the parking lots at the appropriate entrances when picking up students.  When possible, you can completely avoid this by using the bus!

Changing Families Group:
The guidance department is running a 6 week "Changing Families" group during the school day for students who are experiencing parental divorce or separation. The purpose of the group is to teach age-appropriate coping skills related to identified problems and stressors resulting from divorce in a non-judgmental and supportive group setting. Please contact the guidance office to sign up or for more information; Kim Galluzzo, galluzzok@sau25.net/472-3951x22216 or Priscilla McGinty, mcgintyp@sau25.net/472-3951x22226.

Calling all budding artists! The McKelvie Yearbook Club is happy to announce its annual cover contest. One sixth grade and one fifth grade submission will be selected for the front and back covers and those winners will receive a free yearbook. All students are welcome to participate!

Library News:
The Rubik's cube challenge is in full swing! Click HERE to see what has been created so far. We are striving to have the turkey mosaic created before next week's holiday! This mosaic has been a challenge.

I could not resist putting this PSA into the note from the library this week. Please remember to keep your library books safe! With student permission, I captured this image of a book nibbled on by one of her adorable dogs at her house along with an image of one of the culprits. Even furry family members like a good book! To avoid book charges, please remind your child to keep books away from pets.

I want to wish all of the McKelvie community a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
Enjoy the time with friends and family. ~Mrs. Cote

Dear McKelvie Families~

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! With the really cold weather this past week, I want to remind parents that unless it falls below 20 degrees, kids are going outside for recess.

Library News:
The library was a bustling place this short week! We had classes in the library taking notes for an upcoming Westward Expansion unit. Chef Cote hosted a book tasting with the fantasy books we have here at the McKelvie Library and two classes were introduced to Flipgrid with Mrs. Cavanaugh in conjunction with Mrs. Opitz and Mrs. Cote. This social learning platform allows students to video record responses. In this case, the two 5th grade classes will be creating video responses to books they have read! Students also came to relax and read, create with origami, work on a puzzle, and begin to work on a second Rubik's Cube Challenge! It is almost turkey time! The mosaic that we are going to currently be working on is that of a turkey. Stay tuned for images.

During the week, the library acquired 62 new books from Follett (an educational product vendor) as well as several books from our generous PTG! All of these books are currently checked out or are available for circulation. These books include fiction, nonfiction, biographies, and professional titles. We also received a generous donation from our PTG Scholastic Book Fair. These titles are also circulating!

Happy weekend, McKelvie!

Please click HERE to see our ongoing Google Slides presentation of images from the library. I will continue to add to this presentation as the year progresses. Some of the images you may have seen in the previous week's note and some are unique to this Slides presentation.

Is there a book in a popular series, a new release or a book on a topic we don't have in the McKelvie Library? If so, please have your child(ren) check the Destiny catalog to be sure we do not have the book they are looking to read! If we do not, have them record a Flipgrid video linked to the library site! This link can be found under the "Resources" tab. This is a moderated Flipgrid link where MIS students can record book suggestions. I will take into consideration the title or topic that they are looking to read about based on professional reviews and content. These videos will help drive purchases and collection development. I am excited to watch the student input I receive. As a librarian I strive to provide students with texts they are excited about reading and engaging with by taking into consideration their voices.

There was another "Golden Ticket" located today! Congratulations to Gavin from Mr. Brown's homeroom who found the 7th "Golden Ticket." Click HERE to see Gavin, his ticket, and his prize. There are only 3 remaining!
