More of March @ Greenhouse


At Greenhouse, A Learning Center for Missionary Children, I sometimes visit classrooms for library related instruction. On March 14 I did a review of reference materials with 5th and 6th graders in preparation for their standardized testing in April. Covered were such things as: recognizing information from a library catalog record, using an almanac, dictionary, atlas, website search terms, table of contents, index, organizing info in a web, and more.


For preschoolers, I hosted “Color Your World with Books” Storytimes with Craft – Red, Orange, & Yellow Days.



Materials checkout and check-in are common to each day. Above preschool moms stock up on books, educational games, and puzzles before spring break.

March also includes the beginning of processing recent acquisitions. Much gratitude to DeAnna Anderson for creating barcodes and spine labels; she will soon teach me how to do that part. Preparing for the “Joint Learning Session” April 8-30 when home schooling families around Cameroon will be in Yaounde for classroom teaching.
