Homeschooling Library Club
The Home Schoolers' Library Club is a collaboration between our library and some of our patrons who are homeschooling to help them fulfill their "Library Skills" requirements.
This year we will cover characterization, plot setting and conflict in stories through the use of picture books. The children will also create an original book. Later, we will explore different genres. Projects, games and activities to familiarize the children with the library and compliment the lessons. Snack is also included.
We usually will meet every other Monday from 1:00-2:30. A complete schedule and more details will be made available at our first class on Sept 16th.
Please text Miss Nancy at 712-1211 or through email nancy@holliscenterpubliclibrary.com
