Freeman Public School Community Library

It was another great morning at the Library, unearthing amazing stories and discovering a little more about the past!

Today we explored Ancient Egypt and learned about the treasures that have been found in tombs thousands of years old. We read some fun mummy stories, talked about hieroglyphics, and even created our own messages on “golden” tablets!

Who knows… maybe someday a historian will uncover one of their tablets and spend years trying to decode what it says! 🤣🏺✨📜

As always, thank you to everyone who joined us for another morning of learning, creativity, and adventure. We can't wait to see what we'll discover next! 💎📚🖤

What an awesome morning at the Library! 📚🦴💎

Today’s theme was fossils and gemstones! We read about paleontologists and learned about fossils found right here in Nebraska. Did you know Nebraska was once covered by water? Because of that, many of the fossils found in our area are actually from aquatic animals rather than dinosaurs! We also learned about prehistoric horses, camels, and rhinos that once roamed the region.

We explored gemstones that can be found around here too. Keep your eyes open—you might even discover some in your own backyard! 💎

For our craft, kiddos created their own fossil imprints in clay. We may have some future paleontologists in our midst! 🦕🔍

Don't forget to keep reading and tracking your progress to earn those raffle tickets! We can't wait to see everyone again next Tuesday for another fun-filled morning at the library.

What a great start to our Summer Reading Program! 📚☀️

Between kids and adults, we had nearly 85 people join us this morning! What a fun way to kick off the summer!

Thank you all for your patience and grace when our internet decided to take an unexpected break, making book checkouts and book fair purchases a little more challenging. 🤣 We powered through and got it done!

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and to those who supported the Scholastic Book Fair. Your purchases help give back to the Freeman Library, and we truly appreciate your support!

We can't wait to see everyone again next Tuesday! Don't forget to keep track of your reading so you can earn raffle tickets for our awesome end-of-summer prizes. 📖🎟️✨
