About the Library Project

This blogspot is set up for the school library project aimed to promote the school library. All the activities that are going to be displayed in this blog for teachers and parents to view. This will also update the activities done for the selected pupils of Year 5. The five weeks project can be viewed from this blog and both teachers and parents will be able to comment or give suggestions about the Blogspot or the activities that are done during the library project.

There are two mini-projects for this Library Project; Developing Basic Library Skills and Book Reviewing. The first four weeks, me myself will develop the basic library skills once each week.

During the first 4 weeks between 17th February - 10th March 2011, the Year 5A pupils will be;

1. identifying the fiction and non-fiction books.

2. identifying the parts of the book;

• 
  
  Title of the book


• 
  
  Author of the book


• 
  
  Illustrator of the book


• 
  
  Place of Publication


• 
  
  Call Number of the book

I hope that after these mini projects, the selected pupils will be more fond to go to the library and will make full use of how to get information from the library. I also hope that teachers and parents will give productive feedbacks as I go along with the mini-projects.
