SCHOOL
Deng Starts School is a wonderful Phase 1 reader about a newcomer mom who receives a school supplies list from her son's teacher. I print in colour and bind them with three staples at the spine. Learners love having their very own books. In my class, we use one reader as the basis of a week-long module, working toward fluency day by day.

The Library is my newest fully illustrated book to prepare CLB 2L or CLB 1 classes for a trip to the library. It comes with a much more extensive activity pack than I've created before. I hope you use it and let me know when you have.
The reader should be printed "double sided, flip on the short side" to allow you to fold it in half so that the centres of pages become the spine to be stapled by hand. |

Here is a replication of the self-check machine's screens that I made for my students to practice in class before our field trip. It is very short and simple with only enough screens for checking out one book. Enjoy!

We Go to the Library is the older, shorter book I created for CLB 1L to help them get ready for a field trip to the public library. It includes information about what to bring in order to get a library card, loan period, and late fines. The actual fines and loan period have been left blank so that teachers in other communities and in future years can also use the book.
This is an Activity Pack.
To help make things run more smoothly that day, we filled out the application forms ahead of time and emailed them to the librarian. This made a great artefact for PBLA.

NB: You will need KG Primary Penmanship Lined font installed on each machine on which you open Foundations or CLB 1L activity packs in MS Word. This is not necessary for the PDF versions or higher level activity packs.
