Beginning year lesson plans for grades 5-8

[Stephanie Taylor <Steph6759@AOL.COM>]

Hi,
I finally went and actually got hired as an SLMS with 22 days to go before
school starts. My school has regularly scheduled library classes for all
grades K-8. I have some great ideas for the first couple of weeks with the
littler ones but I'm having trouble thinking of introductory lesson plans for
the older kids. Is there anyone out there with experience in this?  My past
experience didn't include grades 5-8 coming in regularly.
Thanks in anticipation of your help.
