DWS 2017 Summer Reading for Rising 2Nd Grade DWS 2017 Summer Reading for Rising 2nd Grade The Library Committee and Class Teachers are pleased to present the DWS 2017 Summer Reading for students in rising 2nd through 8th grades. Summer is a wonderful time to spread out a blanket and read with your child. The English language has by far the largest vocabulary and most complex code (rules) of any other language. It also has a unique ability to absorb words from other languages. All of this makes English the preferred language of poets and playwrights because subtle shades of meaning can be expressed. Vocabulary becomes essential for proficient reading in this wonderfully complex language. Vocabulary acquisition is best obtained through reading. So... relax, sip a lemonade and READ! Things you can Do: 1. Pick a book! You can use the enclosed suggested book list for some ideas. 2. Read! Write down the book info on the log page. 3. Rate it! Did you “Like it,” “Love it”? Would you give it a 10+ or 3 stars, maybe 5 hearts? Would you share or not share? 4. Design a new cover for your favorite book. 5. Write a review on the enclosed index cards. Be sure to include your name, grade and the title of the book. We’ll use these in the library. 6. Make a bookmark. Draw a scene from your favorite story, a favorite character or the joys of reading. 7. Have fun!

  • Nagroda Im. H. Ch. Andersena Nagroda
    Nagroda im. H. Ch. Andersena Nagroda za wybitne zasługi dla literatury dla dzieci i młodzieży Co dwa lata IBBY przyznaje autorom i ilustratorom książek dziecięcych swoje najwyższe wyróżnienie – Nagrodę im. Hansa Christiana Andersena. Otrzymują ją osoby żyjące, których twórczość jest bardzo ważna dla literatury dziecięcej. Nagroda ta, często nazywana „Małym Noblem”, to najważniejsze międzynarodowe odznaczenie, przyznawane za twórczość dla dzieci. Patronem nagrody jest Jej Wysokość, Małgorzata II, Królowa Danii. Nominacje do tej prestiżowej nagrody zgłaszane są przez narodowe sekcje, a wyboru laureatów dokonuje międzynarodowe jury, w którego skład wchodzą badacze i znawcy literatury dziecięcej. Nagrodę im. H. Ch. Andersena zaczęto przyznawać w 1956 roku, w kategorii Autor, a pierwszy ilustrator otrzymał ją dziesięć lat później. Na nagrodę składają się: złoty medal i dyplom, wręczane na uroczystej ceremonii, podczas Kongresu IBBY. Z okazji przyznania nagrody ukazuje się zawsze specjalny numer czasopisma „Bookbird”, w którym zamieszczane są nazwiska nominowanych, a także sprawozdanie z obrad Jury. Do tej pory żaden polski pisarz nie otrzymał tego odznaczenia, jednak polskie nazwisko widnieje na liście nagrodzonych. W 1982 roku bowiem Małego Nobla otrzymał wybitny polski grafik i ilustrator Zbigniew Rychlicki. Nagroda im. H. Ch. Andersena w 2022 r. Kolejnych zwycięzców nagrody im. Hansa Christiana Andersena poznamy wiosną 2022 podczas targów w Bolonii. Na długiej liście nominowanych, na której jest aż 66 nazwisk z 33 krajów – 33 pisarzy i 33 ilustratorów znaleźli się Marcin Szczygielski oraz Iwona Chmielewska. MARCIN SZCZYGIELSKI Marcin Szczygielski jest znanym polskim pisarzem, dziennikarzem i grafikiem. Jego prace były publikowane m.in. w Nowej Fantastyce czy Newsweeku, a jako dziennikarz swoją karierę związał również z tygodnikiem Wprost oraz miesięcznikiem Moje mieszkanie, którego był redaktorem naczelnym.

  • Robin Morrow, AM
    The International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) is a non-profit organisation which represents an international network of people from all over the world committed to bringing books and children together. NEWSLETTER No 32 February, 2017 President’s Letter Dear members and supporters of IBBY Australia The office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) was created in 1950, in the aftermath of World War II when millions of people had fled or lost their homes. (And Australia was quick to sign up as a state party to the Refugee Convention). IBBY was founded very soon after, in 1953. These were two of the organisations which arose at that time to work cooperatively, across national borders, to build a better world. Now we see many countries and leaders retreating from transnational policies. The president of the US has banned entry for people from a list of countries, in clear breach of the Geneva Convention. Australia has made savage cuts to its foreign aid budget. Millions of people, including many children, are refugees. It is easy to lose heart, and feel powerless in the face of such challenges. IBBY continues to advocate for the right of every child to be a reader, and to work to implement this through the IBBY Fund for Children in Crisis. In this newsletter are stories to inspire us, of a bilingual picture book club in Germany, and of a French project with wordless books, linked to IBBY Italia’s Silent Books: Final Destination Lampedusa. Go to the revamped website www.ibby.org to find out more of how IBBY combines idealism with practical efforts to bring quality books to children everywhere.

  • Hans Christian Andersen Awards Are the Highest International Distinction in Children’S Literature
    HANS CH RISTIAN A NDERSEN A WARDS Christine E. King, Iowa State University The Hans Christian Andersen Awards are the highest international distinction in children’s literature. They are given every other year to a living author and illustrator whose outstanding body of work is judged to have made a lasting contribution to literature for children and young people. The first three awards were made to authors for single works. The author’s award has been given since 1956 and the illustrator’s since 1966. They are presented by the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY). They have become the “Little Nobel Prize,” and their prestige has grown over the years. Selecting the award win- ners is considered by many to be IBBY’s most important activity. The nominations are made by the National Sections of IBBY, and the recipients are selected by a distinguished international jury of children’s literature specialists. The IBBY emphasizes that the Hans Christian Andersen Awards are not intended to be a national award, but an outstanding international award for chil- dren’s literature. A great effort is made to encourage the submission of candidates from all over the world, and a jury of ten experts is also selected from around the world in order to encourage a diversity of outlook and opinion. The award consists of a gold medal bearing the portrait of Hans Christian Andersen and a diploma and is presented at the opening ceremony of the IBBY Congress. The IBBY’s refereed journal Bookbird has a special Andersen Awards issue which presents all the nominees and documents the selection process.

  • Premios Andersen De Literatura Antonio Orlando Rodríguez /Adaptación Bárbara Streeter
    Premios Andersen de Literatura Antonio Orlando Rodríguez /Adaptación Bárbara Streeter Para hablar sobre los Premios Andersen hay que referirse primero a IBBY. IBBY son las siglas que identifican a la Organización Internacional para el Libro Juvenil. Esta entidad fue fundada en Zurich, Suiza, en 1953. IBBY está integrada por alrededor de 60 secciones en diferentes países de todos los continentes y agrupa a personas comprometidas con una idea común: el encuentro de los libros y los niños. IBBY tiene entre sus propósitos principales: o Promover el entendimiento internacional a través de los libros para niños y jóvenes. o Favorecer en todo el mundo que los niños tengan acceso a libros de gran calidad literaria y artística. o Favorecer la publicación y la distribución de libros de calidad para niños y jóvenes, especialmente en los países en desarrollo. o Apoyar y formar a quienes trabajan con niños y jóvenes y con la literatura para niños. o Estimular la investigación y el trabajo académico en el campo de la literatura para niños. IBBY surgió como resultado del empeño de Jella Lepman, una alemana convencida de la importancia de los libros para niños. Finalizada la segunda guerra mundial, esta mujer comenzó a trabajar para que todas aquellas personas del mundo involucradas en la creación, selección y distribución de libros para niños - autores, ilustradores, bibliotecarios, profesores, editores, libreros, etc.- se agruparan en una organización que les permitiera conocerse y trabajar juntos. Así nació IBBY, en 1953.
