Fourth and fifth graders have officially taken over the Library! Not really, but a new program created just for fourth and fifth graders has officially kicked off. It’s called Tween Scene, and it takes place on the first Saturday of the month from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Because I’m the teen librarian and I’m loud and I like to do things differently, these kids got a real taste of what it’s like to be a teen. We started off the morning by getting to know each other by pelting our newest friends with pieces of paper which contained tidbits of information about ourselves. We then opened the papers and very successfully guessed who wrote down what information. Donuts very quickly became the center of attention (I did tell you I like to feed people, right?) as we chowed down and discovered what great activity awaited those in attendance… chocolate spider clusters! We braved the potential of what could be a chocolate meltdown and walked away with clean hands and t-shirts, not to mention a yummy treat! We wrapped up the morning with a look at ten awesomely scary titles that can be found in the Library as well as what great activity awaits everyone in November.
Anyone in grades four or five is welcome to join Tween Scene. All you have to do is head to our website and sign up, or call, or stop in, and ask a reference librarian to sign you up. October’s program was a blast, and I am totally looking forward to seeing you in November!
