Welcome back!

Welcome back to the Braeside library! I hope you all had a wonderful summer and had the chance to read some great books. I am looking forward to a great year. I will post more information soon about our upcoming author visits and programs.

SURVEY

Writing Conference

Fourth and fifth graders. I hope you had a wonderful time at the Writing Conference. I am so proud of you for all of your hard work. It really paid off! Your stories were very different… we had realistic fiction, fantasies, science fiction, mysteries, and stories from every other genre. The one thing that all of the stories had in common was that they were all wonderful! I so enjoyed getting to read them all. I hope that you enjoyed hearing from our guest speaker Brenda Feber and your time with your group leader and that you came away with some advice for how to become even stronger writers.

Now that the conference is done I would love to hear some feedback from you. Please fill out this Writing Conference survey to let me know what you thought of the day.
