We the People...


The US Constitution is a document that explains the basic, major laws of our country.
 
That makes it a pretty important document.
It's something all Americans should learn about.
 
September 17th is Constitution Day.

We use that day to learn about how our country runs.  




Follow the "dots" to learn everything you ever wanted to know and more about the US Constitution.

Mrs. Cupples is the President of the United Library of Roberta Tipps, but she is NOT the president of the Internet.  She can't control any of the crazy business that goes on in cyberspace.  Be careful when poking around on the Internet and ALWAYS get your parent's permission.

Patriot Day is September 11th

September 11, 2001, was a very sad day in American History.
The World Trade Center, also known as the Twin Towers, in New York City was attacked.
The buildings fell down and a lot of people died.
Today, we remember that day as a special holiday called Patriot Day.


Want to know more about this very special day?

Mrs. Cupples may be the most fabulous library lady to ever walk the earth, but she doesn't have any control over all the crazy business on the Internet.  So ALWAYS get permission from your parents before you go exploring, and let them know right away if you find anything weird.

National Children's Book Week!

National Children's Book Week is May 7th-13th.
What better way to celebrate than to...READ!


The hotspots will take you to some great stuff to read.
Most of the stuff is FREE, but some stuff requires a library card...which is also FREE. 

The Arlington Public Library has teamed up with the Mansfield Public Library. 
You can check out stuff at either library or online with ONE CARD!

As always Mrs. Cupples is not in charge of the whole entire Internet.  She can't control what some sillybillys put out there.  So be careful, and always get your parent's permission before you go exploring.
