November LMC Updates 2022
A message from the LMC Staff
Battle of the Books
Why participate?
To build a love of reading
To read books students might not choose independently
To engage students in an academic team competition
To connect students and schools across the state
To have fun!
Did you know?
Playaways are small handheld devices that play audiobooks. Audiobooks are books that are listened to. Our library playaways include a companion book (or books) so students can follow along as they listen to the story. They can be checked out from each of the LMCs.
Keep in mind, listening to books is still reading! Why listen to a book?
- Improve critical thinking and comprehension skills
- Expand vocabulary
- Improve pronunciation and fluency
- Build listening skills
- Increase reading accuracy
- Increase recall when print and audio are combined
We hope students take advantage of our Playaway collections!
2,491 books have been checked out this month! Most popular titles:
Evansville High School
JC McKenna Middle School & TRIS
Levi Leonard
Thank you for supporting our schools with purchases made at the Book Fair!
The Book Fairs at Levi Leonard and TRIS were a huge success. Thank you for your generosity. We love seeing the excitement selecting and purchasing a book brings to our students.
The JC McKenna Fair is still happening, so it's not too late to make a purchase if your'e still interested. The fair will close Nov 7th. Here is the link to their online fair and access to ewallet.
Students enjoying our Library Media Centers!
