Early Literacy
Diversity
Did you know May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month? Check
out a children’s book with Asian and Pacific Islander representation. Before, during,
and after reading, ask your child questions such as, “What do you have in common
with the characters?” and “What did you learn about the characters and/or their
culture?” Reserve books from the library at go.clcohio.org/asian-heritage-month.
Vocabulary and Letters
Practice letters with your child by playing an alphabet game. Walk around outside
or in your home and find items that start with each letter. This can also help build
your child’s vocabulary!
Fingerplays
Not only are fingerplays fun, but they help develop finger independence and finger
awareness. Because of this, they also are good activities for future little musicians.
Try this one at home:
Five Plump Peas
Five plump peas in a peapod pressed
(Put hand in fist with other hand on top)
One grew, two grew, so did all the rest!
(Release one finger at a time)
They grew, and they grew, and they wouldn’t stop
(Spread hands apart to show they have grown)
They grew so big, that the peapod POPPED!
(Keep spreading hands and clap hands in front of you on “popped”)
21Levy Information
The Grandview Heights Public Library is on the ballot this spring to request
a renewal of the 4.5 mill operating levy with NO tax increase. This renewal
is needed to maintain the current level of funding for the library. Below are
answers to frequently asked questions about the levy.
Why is there a library levy on the May 3 ballot?
Collections for the library’s 4.5 mill operating levy end this year. The library is asking
the community to renew this 4.5 mill operating levy for another 6 years with NO tax
increase.
Will my taxes increase if the levy is renewed?
No. This levy is a straight renewal with no tax increase.
Why is this levy necessary?
The current expiring levy provides
approximately 39% of the library’s operating
revenue. The renewal of this levy is needed
to maintain library services. This includes
maintaining current hours, staffing, services,
programs, and materials (books, music,
movies, e-books, etc.).
How much tax will I pay
for this levy if it passes?
If the levy passes, homeowners pay the
same amount they currently pay. To view your
individual tax, please search for your property
on the Franklin County Auditor’s website:
www.franklincountyauditor.com.
What happens if the operating levy does not pass?
If the levy does not pass, the library will lose approximately 39% of its revenue and
will be forced to consider reducing hours, circulating materials, and staff.
