Programs to Encourage Reading:
Book Talks
Media Specialist will visit
classrooms to give motivational introductions to books in our media
center encouraging student voluntary reading.
Media Books &
Games Club
The Media Center is open during club time after school on
Thursdays from 3 - 3:45 for students to relax and read or play
mind-challenging games like chess, scrabble, hangman, and boggle.
Activity buses are available for transportation home.
Guest Reader
Adults serving as role models
for reading enjoyment are invited to school to read aloud 15 to 20
minutes from a book chosen by the media specialist. The book is then
given to one of the students in a random drawing.
Guest Speakers
Speakers are invited to the
media center during school to present information of interest to
students who have signed up for the program. A tie to this information
in books will be made to encourage personal reading.
Book Fair
The Media Center
will offer students and parents a chance to purchase books, CD's, computer
software, and posters for leisure reading and personal enjoyment. Profits from this event are used to enhance the resources and services
of the Media Center, as well as to provide positive behavior incentives
for our students. The date will be announced later.
