I'm in shock that the year is coming to a close. All books must be returned to the library by Friday, June 8th, but that's no reason for your children to stop reading. Bennett will be holding it's Book Swap on Monday, June 11th. Help your child get books to trade in by Thursday, June 7th. Our parent organizers are unwilling to accept books on the day of the swap.
Plus we have a fabulous public library system. I'll be sharing the details of the KCLS summer reading program the week of June 11th. I love the Crossroads library for loading up on fabulous picture and audio books.
The key is for your child to keep reading!

Simple Steps to Internet Safety
Oh, if I had all the time in the world to keep this blog filled with ideas about how to keep your kids safe online and how to teach them internet responsibitly I would. While I don't seem to find the time, Common Sense Media does. I loved this article and thought you'd appreciate it as well. It includes Do's and Don't's and recommended websites. Take a look!

After celebrating Pig Day at the end of March, some of our kindergartener students wrote him letters and today we received the following response.
I was feeling tired and oh, so ready for the weekend. After receiving these messages, I felt energized and thrilled to have my job. Stop by the Bennett Library for a bit of reading inspiration. The right book will put a smile on your face.
