Section 1: Library Duties

• Daily activities include such things as: making deliveries, rearranging library furniture, straightening or organizing, putting textbooks away, helping teachers or other students, etc. 
• Shelving - everyone will be assigned at least one section of the library that he/she is responsible for.  When you come to the library, immediately check in with Mrs. Coble or Ms. Jorja to see if they have something that needs to be done immediately, then shelve the books in your section.  Read your section - make sure that all books are in the correct order and that everything is neat, clean, and organized.

Section 2: Google Game

• Listen to my lesson on Internet searching.
•  Play the Google Game.

Section 3: Book Project

• Select a nonfiction book to read.  This book must be approved by Mrs. Coble. 

• After you read the book, you will create a book project.  You may make a PowerPoint presentation, a Voice Thread project, or use Publisher to create a newsletter or brochure.

Section 4: PicLit / Voice Thread Project

• Go to PicLit http://piclits.com/compose_dragdrop.aspx.  You can create your own account if you have email or you can use the school account.  The password is: student.

   

• Write a descriptive paragraph for the PicLit that you created during Trimester 1.  Do the best you can, but Ms. Jorja and I will not help you with this.  If you turn in the paragraph, you get an A; if you do not turn in your paragraph, you get an F.  If possible, include a compound sentence and a complex sentence.  Type your paragraph on Word.  Use Times New Roman font, size 14 or 16.  Print out your paragraph and give it to me.

• This paragraph is the first step in our Voice Thread project.  I will give you further directions after I receive the paragraphs.

 Section 5: Discussion

• There are 2 discussion questions for Trimester 1. They are Discussion Question 3 and Discussion Question 4. You must have at least 2 entries for each question.  This is a school project so you must capitalize the first word in every sentence and all proper nouns, including your name.  You must spell all words correctly.  There is no spell check on the wiki so you may want to write your response in Word then copy and paste it onto the wiki.
