Unit 3 Going to the Library
Let’s talk What kind of books do you enjoy reading most? Why? Where would you go to find out information? Reading
On Sunday, Joshua wrote in his journal about a visit to the library. Sunday October 26 Yesterday Mommy took me to the public library. I needed information for my school project on machines. When we arrived at the library, I saw my friend Daniel. He offered to show me around. First, we went to the fiction section where you find story books, plays and poems. Then we went to the reference section where you can find information on different topics. I found an interesting book about machines and asked if I could take it home with me. Daniel said I would have to join the library. The librarian gave
Mommy an application form to sign and now I am a member of the library. I can take out three books at a time. I think going to the library will really help me with my project.”
