The week of April 5th is School Library Week. Please come to the library to celebrate on Friday April 9. We will be hosting a "Book Tasting" for staff so you can see many of the new books and enjoy coffee or water and a snack.
Library Skills
No supplies needed for the rotation 3/31/2021-4/6/2021
We will be voting in the championship round of the Book Tournament and using the April Choice Board.
Lightbox Books
Lightbox books are interactive eBooks found in Destiny. It is a great way for students to interact with books. Click on the video above to see how to use them. They work on Chromebooks when students are logged into their Chromebook with their username and password. You can use these books in your curriculum and have them open on your BenQ for the whole class to see. They are unlimited use so more than one user can view the book at one time. You will find them on April's Choice Board as well as in Destiny.
Collections in Destiny
A collection in Destiny is a curated list of resources that can include books from the library, ebooks, audiobooks, websites, videos, Google Docs and more. Collections are accessible for staff and students and staff can create their own. Creating your own collection is a way to curate many resources in one spot. Let me know if you want me to create one for you or show you how to do it.
April Choice Board
Take a look at all the resources on the April Choice Board. You will find Animals, Spring, Earth Day, Poetry, Sports, and the Book Tournament along with some interactive activities such as Beebots and Stick Together. I am happy to customize these boards to correlate with learning in your classroom so let me know what you want.
Students are "Sticking Together" one kindness at a time in the library. Check out the progress on our mosaic poster and if you did not add to it, please stop in and add your "kindness"
Our digital Stick Together from last month is complete.
Reminders
Books and water do not mix. Please remind students to keep water bottles away from books. Help students to remember to bring library books back in a timely fashion.
