The fifth grade is making bookprints...kind of like a fingerprint, it tells about who you are.  Ms. Cole found bookprints on the scholastic.com website.  Here's the link to the site:

Sign yourself up and make your own bookprint, then look for Ms. Cole and me or hunt for our childhood alter-ego logins too (crazycanoe & loopyknitter).  Have fun reading about what books other people chose. 
 
Hey people, this is a link to the wordle that the Pelican Library students made about television versus books.  What do you think?  Is it the same thing to watch a movie for two hours as it is to read a book for two hours.

Woo hoo, here's our Internet Safety Rap!  Thank you so much to Joseph Foster, All-American point guard for the OIT Hustlin' Owls, for helping us out on our rap.  You all did a great job!  Be sure to send the link to your friends and family so they can let us know what they learned from our video.  Nice work.   

(It takes a little while for the rap movie to load, but once it does you don't have to wait for buffering.  Just click the triangle, then walk away, get a drink of water and come back to enjoy the show!)
