Behind the scenes in the NGMS media center things are in full swing preparing for Teen Read Week coming up on October 18-24. Teen Read Week is an initiative of YALSA (Young Adult Library Services Association) that promotes and encourages all teenagers to read. The overall theme of TRW is "Read For The Fun Of It," and the sub-theme for this year is "Read Beyond Reality."
We will be celebrating TRW-09 by setting up several themed book displays and having a school-wide bookmark contest the week of October 19-23. More information on the book contest to follow next week!
October is also Disability History and Awareness Month. We have a special display of materials set up to recognize and increase awareness of this month. Also available to teachers, staff members, and parents is a wealth of information such as lesson plans, brochures, and a narrated powerpoint presentation. Please see any of the media center staff for these resources.
