Welcome to Brock's Library Blog!

8/31/2014

Summer certainly has flown by! It was great seeing some of you at summer school. I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and that you managed to enjoy the outdoors even though the weather was at times, horribly uncooperative!

I'm very excited to be back in the library again this year! We are trying out this blog as a way of communicating with students and families about the goings-on in the library. Please feel free to comment on any and all posts (comments will appear as soon as they are approved).

But…I won't be the only one writing this blog! Other teachers have expressed interest in being a guest blogger. My hope is also for students to take ownership of a special student section where they can write book reviews, make recommendations, and share anything else library-related they would like. Stay tuned for more info!

Wishing you all a wonderful school year,

Ms. Kondo :)

P.S. If you found any books over the summer, please return them to the library. Each student will start with a "clean slate" on their accounts so that they can check out books, but it's better to have books returned late than never! Book exchange will begin for all classes at the end of September.

this is awesome to have our own website to get more info on things. We don't have to disturb the teachers for any contest info or anything basically! Thank you Miss Kondo, we are fortunate to have you!

Thanks for your kind words, Vennila! I'm so glad that you logged on already. I hope that you will write a book review for the site this year! :)

your welcome, you deserve it. i will be writing one, just not sure which book yet. it'll probably be diary themed or true story book.

Thank You Ms.Kondo for making this website for all the students and teachers to find more or forgotten information. I am very happy about this website. I will Try to go on every day! :)

10/24/2014 16:06:55

i go on everyday and check the comments and every page to see if miss kondo or you guys added anything.

10/26/2014 16:29:16

Thank you so much for your enthusiasm, girls! :)

Just so you know, I usually update and add more information on the weekends. But if anyone comments, I'll approve them during the week for sure.

Let me know if you ever want to contribute something to the site!

Your welcome Ms.Kondo and I will certainly let you know if I want to contribute anything to this website!

10/28/2014 15:34:54

i definitely want to contribute something. um.......can we add it or tell you to add it? can we have a new contest. if yes, close to the winter break can we have a christmas themed contest to draw a christmas/winter sceneary?

10/28/2014 20:12:03

Sure! You can add a comment any time. But if you wanted to make a post or a review, you can email it to me at booksatbrock@gmail.com. Or, come see me at lunch or recess and I will help you add it yourself!

And yes! I am having a winter themed contest, but it will probably happen in January. Do you have any other ideas of contests that we can have? I need some suggestions. :)

10/29/2014 17:44:08

ok. i'll come see you once i have an idea of what to add. i am addicted to this site! thank you

10/29/2014 17:45:29

can you reset my password miss kondo? i totally forgot my old one. the student password to log in. i am telling you on this because i can never find time to tell in person. hope u dont mind. sorry and thanks

10/30/2014 11:02:15

No problem, Vennila! Good idea to ask me on here.

I reset it to the shared secret (last 4 digits of your student number + day of birth + month of birth). Then you can enter your new password in twice. Make sure it's at least 8 characters long and something you've never used before.

11/4/2014 18:19:43

thank you so much!

11/4/2014 18:20:37

by day you mean the date number and by month you mean the number right? sorry, i get doubts on such simple things

11/4/2014 19:53:32

No worries! It's confusing.

You're right. So if your birthday was July 6 and your student number ended in 1234, your shared secret would be 12340607. :)

11/5/2014 20:19:04

Thank you so much! that cleared my doubt. sorry for taking away your time, miss kondo

11/5/2014 20:30:26

No problem. Any time!

11/7/2014 16:39:02

thanks miss kondo. i used my password today. now i don't have to worry about it everyday. your so nice! i can't wait to come to the book fair. new books! e!!!

11/9/2014 18:30:54

Oh great! I'm so glad it worked out!

I can't believe it's time for the book fair already!

11/10/2014 18:42:34

i love Book Fairs! The fact that you take your time to organize it, give little prizes to the helpers, the poster draw and more makes it even better! Thanks a lot!

11/11/2014 10:41:23

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I'll keep doing them as long as everyone likes them!

11/11/2014 20:50:20

we are truly lucky to have you miss kondo. hope we raise over this year's goal for the book fair!

11/15/2014 14:02:09

Athavan wanted me to tell you that he's sick miss kondo. He's right beside me shivering. he's going to sleep. he'll see you not on monday but maybe wednesday. not sure. bye hope your having a nice long weekend.

11/16/2014 20:59:09

Oh dear. I hope he feels better soon!

11/17/2014 16:11:21

He didn't come to school today. also, in our basketball tournament, we were so close, like 4 away from winning.

11/17/2014 18:59:37

That's ok! Sounds like you guys did great!

11/18/2014 15:39:13
