Discarded Magazines
Hi Teachers-
The library has several boxes of discarded magazines available to go to classrooms. Many of them have great cut-up/collage potential.
Please stop by the library office and take what you want- the rest will be given away at the Used Book Sale next week (Tuesday through Thursday).
Thanks-
Michelle
