Once again this summer the RES library media center will be holding summer book checkouts! Scholars in kindergarten and grades one, two, and three will be able to check out up to 10 books from the library media center and take them home for the summer. Starting on Thursday June 15, scholars will be bringing home “Carry Out a Good Book” bags with their summer library books. Each scholar will also get a note explaining the program and a list of books he or she has checked out for the summer. The books will be due back when school starts in the fall. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our librarian Mrs. Redford at 434-2461 or beth.redford@cesuvt.org

Writing Concrete Poems in Library Class! @resvt #vsla #vted




 One-word concrete poem: "Flying"
Can you see the "L" flying?


In collaboration with their classroom unit on poetry, RES second graders have been learning about and writing concrete poems in their library classes. Concrete poems, also known as shape poems, are poems where the arrangement of words or letters on the page add to the meaning of the poem.




Students shared several books of concrete poetry, then they wrote their own. We are so impressed with their creativity!

2nd Grade Golf Field Trip

Do you enjoy spending time on the golf course?  Have you ever wondered what golf really is?  We need parent volunteers to make our day at Cedar Knoll Country Club both fun and successful.  You don't have to know anything about golf to help us out.  We need parents to chaperone groups as they take part in stations and parents to help supervise stations.  No worries, we will give you everything you need to run a station.

    Our trip is on Tuesday, June 6 with the rain date being on Thursday, June 8.

    Please email Marie Ayer at marie.ayer@cesuvt.org if you are able to help out on either of those days.
