New database

We have an addition to our PebbleGo animal database! We now subscribe to the PebbleGo earth & space database.  This includes earth science, space, seasons, and weather. All classes will have the opportunity to explore this database within the next few weeks.

What is PebbleGo?

PebbleGo is an interactive emergent reader database.
  • It features videos, images, and sounds to explore non-fiction information.
  • PebbleGo has a feature that reads the text to students!
  • It includes a built-in glossary for new vocabulary and scientific terminology.
  • FUN, ENGAGING, and EDUCATIONAL!!!!

How do we get there???

  • Students can still login using the same username and password.
  • The picture above shows the animal database on the left and earth & space on the right. Just select the one you wish to use!
  • You can use the tabs on the upper left-hand side to navigate between both databases!

Playaways


We have added Playaways to our LMC collection. A playaway is a preloaded audio book in MP3 format.  Playaways are a great way to encourage reading! They are excellent for struggling readers, kids on the go, or just as a different way to enjoy a great book!

Character Education

Mrs. McBrearty and I have kicked off our character education program for the month of October! Members of the school staff have been given blank construction paper hands to complete when a student demonstrates the monthly character trait. This month we are learning about responsibility. We have already received many helping hands sharing how CCS students demonstrated responsibility inside and outside of their classrooms. We are filling our bucket to share at the next Friday Finale.
