SWAP—Story With a Project
Food, learning, and fun at this program for kindergartners through fifth-graders on regularly scheduled early dismissal days! We have a healthy snack, talk books, and make projects.
Tumblebooks
TumbleBookLibrary is an online collection of TumbleBooks – animated, talking picture books which teach kids the joy of reading in a format they'll love. TumbleBooks are created by adding animation, sound, music and narration to existing picture books in order to produce an electronic picture book which you can read, or have read to you.
