Happy New Year! Your Learning Commons Team is here for you! If there is ANYTHING you need help with, let us know!
Here are some examples of what your Learning Commons Team has to offer!
You can schedule the Learning Commons for presentations; use the Apple TV to share apps on the iPad; or come in as a class or in small groups for research! We can do special read alouds and lessons or share books with a book talk; you can use the Learning Commons as a "center" or station...send students in for Tumblebooks or post a question/poll on Edmodo and have them come to the Learning Commons to answer that question. There are LOTS of things you can do in the Learning Commons!
If you are interested in ANY of this (or you have other ideas), let us know!
Thank you for all you do!
We look forward to working with you in 2013!

South Carolina Picture Book Award Nominees
Mrs. Byrd Fort will start reading SC Picture Book Award Nominees to Kindergarten classes in January. I can't wait to share some of these great books with 1st and 2nd grade, as well!
South Carolina Children's Book Award Nominees
The Edmodo Book Club for 3rd - 5th graders is still up and running! Please join us to talk about these great books! We will be voting for our favorite in February!
Let's Read with the Lady Gamecocks!
Let's Read with the Lady Gamecocks is a program where students keep a log of the books they read between December 10 - January 11. Students who participate will earn a ticket to the Literacy Game at USC on February 3 at 3pm! The Lady Gamecocks will host Auburn! Go Gamecocks! Go NPES Readers!
Check out these GREAT resources, available through YOUR Learning Commons!
