Curriculum

 

Back to LRC Home

Students in grades K through 5 visit the library with their classes at  scheduled times each week. Stories are read to the lower grades (K-1) and the students check books out for a one week period. In second through fifth grades, library and research skills are taught in conjunction with classroom lessons. Students in grades 2-5 check books out for two weeks. Volunteer parents and grandparents help students with the selection of books and in checking them out.

Students in our Pre-3 and Pre-4 programs will visit the library for storytime at the discretion of their teachers.

Junior high students visit the library from their literature class or during study hall with a pass from the literature teacher. They check books out for a two week period.

The Accelerated Reader program is used in grades K-8. Accelerated Reader is a program that tests reading comprehension. Holy Family LRC has the entire collection of AR tests.

Special projects may be researched and worked on in the LRC by arrangements between the classroom teacher and the LRC staff. When the resources of Holy Family's LRC are not sufficient for research, books may be checked out by the teacher from the public library and used in the classroom for a three week period.
