Library Happenings Episode Two
Three Great Resources to Check Out
- LET's Learn Hispanic Heritage Month: A comprehensive list of books, articles, and resources curated by MISD librarians to honor Hispanic Heritage Month.
- Gale in Context Database (MISD Portal): A great place for your students to start their research. Ms. Tyler and Ms. Snider's Dance 1 classes used it for their choreographer research during the first six weeks. Better than Google!
- Connecting Personal Devices to the MISD Network: Tech Services created these video tutorials to walk staff and students through adding their devices to the network. There is a video for each type of device.
Accio Door Badge! (Last Chance!)
This is the last call for a Hogwarts House Door Badge!! Complete this Google Form by Friday and we'll drop it in your box. We'll send an email when the owls have delivered them!
Skeeter Virtual Book Requests
If your students ask how they can check out library books, guide them to our Skeeter Library website and have them click on "Virtual Book Requests." We will deliver the books to either their English class or SFC.
Skeeter Nation Favorite Book Padlet
We had such a great response to the Favorite Book Padlet during Skeeter Family Connection! Thank you so much to everyone who contributed! If you didn't get a chance to add your favorite book, don't worry the Padlet is still open to submissions. We will be posting the Padlet on our website and social media, but please feel free to add to your resources as well or to make your own for your classes!
