Scholastic Bookfair is Here!

Hey everyone!
Today and through next week the Scholastic Bookfair is here in the back of the Media Center. There are some great books to choose from this time. Here are some titles that might interest you:

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw and Dog Days
Big Nate: In A Class By Himself
Killer Pizza
The Lightning Thief and others in this series
The first three books in the Twilight Series
I So Don't Do Mysteries
The Princess Plot
39 Clues #s 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7
and many more!

There are also posters, bargain books, and more pens and pencils than you could shake a big foam finger at!

Remember we'll be here for the whole next week. We take cash, checks (you have to spend the whole amount it's made out for and you can make them out to AMA), and credit cards (from your parents).

I can't wait to see what kinds of great things we'll get with the money raised at this bookfair!

Have a great weekend!

News and Overdues...

Hey Rams!

Just blogging to give you an update on how our awards for overdues turned out. We started the day with about 739 overdues and ended that day with 600! That was an awesome turnout for my Awards for Overdues Event. I want to do more events like this but I need some ideas so if you have a great idea for a Media Center Event, just let me know!

I'm also happy to report that AMA's Media Center is now down to about 450 overdue books. That's a great jump from having 740 just a few short weeks ago.

Announcement:
Arnold Media Center will be hosting a Scholastic Bookfair from Thursday, March 18 to Friday, March 26! I've got a small preview of books that will be available for purchase at the bookfair so come down to the Media Center to have a look. See below to see when your Language Arts class will be coming to shop:

Thursday, March 18 - Preview Day
Friday, March 19 - Team 601
Monday, March 22 - Team 602
Tuesday, March 23 - 7th Grade
Wednesday. March 24 - 8th Grade with Braddock
Thursday, March 25 - 8th Grade with Reynolds
Friday, March 26 - Open to all

I'll be handing out flyers for it this week so look for them to come out in your homeroom. And if you spend $20 or more, you can enter your name to win a gift certificate to spend at the bookfair before it leaves!

Come see us!
