them to utilize the Media Center.
We are open every morning at 7:00am.
Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays the Media Center will be open until 5:00 pm.

Mrs. Cummings is covering these late hours to accommodate you and your students.
Playaways
One reading strategy that is commonly used to help build a student's vocabulary
is having them listen to an audio book while reading the book in hand. We
have several students that have caught onto this and have been checking out
books on cassettes and CDs. We now have a new form of audio book
called a Playaway. It is in the form of a MP3 player. The students
can check these out and plug in their own earphones to listen to the selected
title. This will also work with computer speakers so you can check them
out and let the entire class hear the book while they read. Come on in and
check out the collection.
Die Cuts
We just ordered new die cuts for the Ellison Machine. We have SHARKS,
symbols and many sports covered as well as letters and numbers for you to use to
make your bulletin boards fun and motivating for your students. Stop by to
see what is new.
The Media Team is here for you and your students!
