Calling all homeschool families! We have a fun new educational program for you!
Program topics will switch monthly, with this month’s theme being New Year, Old History: What Makes Us Different From Other Mammals.
This program is intended for homeschool families with children age 8-12.
This program is in partnership with Pioneer Valley Montessori School
Participating in book groups provides children with opportunities to interact and engage with their peers. They learn how to communicate effectively, cooperate, and collaborate with others. Through group activities, children develop essential social skills such as sharing, taking turns, and resolving conflicts.
We offer book groups for Kindergarteners, 1st graders & 2nd graders, 3rd & 4th graders, and 5th grade & up. Click the registration link to learn more about the January book choices. All books can be picked up at the Circulation Desk. It is recommended the book be read before attending the program.
