Escape Into A World Of Books
Term 3
As we begin Term 3 and Remote Learning again I encourage you to make use of Story Box Library. I have enabled the setting so that the text is shown. Children can listen to the stories, read along or they can read the books themselves if the volume is turned down.
The class teachers have included the login details in each community's Google Classroom.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City has a section on their website called The Children's Reading Room which features Storytime in Nolen Library. At the conclusion of each story there are some fun follow up activities for children to do.
