Library Orientation and Check Out
A few classes have still not had a library orientation. Students can not check out books until we have their session. Please contact Ms. Lester if you are unsure of your class time.
Clemson/Carolina Reading Challenge!
In conjunction with "Read your way to the Big Game" through SCReads, Rhame students will compete to see if Clemson or Carolina fans read the most! Decorate your classroom door, wall or bulletin board to help us kick off the competition and have a chance to win $500!
All pre-kindergarten through eighth-grade students who read six books will qualify to win tickets to the Clemson vs. South Carolina game on November 24. Parent letters and student reading logs were placed in your mailbox. Please ask students to attach notebook paper to the reading log to list all of the titles they read! Once students have completed their readings, they turn in their reading log to Mrs. Lester.
THE DEADLINE FOR TURNING IN READING LOGS IS NOVEMBER 9.
Winners will receive four tickets and pre-game sideline passes to the Clemson vs. South Carolina. Schools with at least 70% student participation will be entered to win one of two $2,000 school library grants. Five participating teachers will be randomly selected to win $500 for their classroom. One teacher and/or school library media specialist who has the best decorated bulletin board, wall or door will win $500 and one teacher and/or media specialist who wins the Read Your Way to the Big Game video contest will be awarded $500.
Makerspace
Send 2 students at anytime to use our Makerspace!
Make sure to send a note saying why they are here and how long they can stay.
Speakers and Video Conferences
We are excited to welcome meteorologist Von Gaskin to Rhame on Tuesday, September 18. She will meet with second graders in the library from 8:30 - 9:10 and
fourth graders from 9:15 - 10:00.
Ms. Johnson is planning a Crazy Creature Collaboration Video Conference for her 2nd graders. In this VC the class creates a creature along with a set of directions for recreating it. They swap directions with another class to see how close each can come to replicating the original!
