Media Monday!  Shout out to MyOn Readers


I wanted to give a shout out to all the schools who have already started using the Free Trial of MyOn and those who are actively promoting this great resource.

Kelley Stanley and Jill Parrish at Four Oaks Elementary just showed the resource to a few classes and told the kids to spread the word and they already have over 1000 books read and almost 300 hours logged! Just since May 19th!

Karen Parker at Micro Pine Level has been letting all her students assess their reading level and select interests in media classes and follow up with their classroom teachers and she shared that her teachers appreciated having something constructive for the students to do during these last few days of school. Resulting in over 450 books read this week.

Kelly Davis at Polenta put together a personalized letter to send home and shared it in the folder for us all to copy and customize.  

So if you haven't gotten started and want to join the fun, below is the link to a folder of information you need to get the ball rolling.
Remember all students are in 1 class the media coordinator is the teacher.  Thanks for giving our kids the information to make reading a priority over the summer!  Let me know if you have questions!
Happy Reading!
Amy

Media Monday: MyOn Getting Started


Attention all Elementary and Interested Middle and High 
Getting started with the MyOn Summer Reading Program!

Please read and WATCH the webinar it answers all your questions.

Thank you for participating in the Summer Reading partnership between myON and the NC – Give Five Read Five Campaign!  We are excited that your school/school district is able to take advantage of this great offer, but most of all, we are excited to offer your students over 5,200 digital books for summer reading! 

Student/Faculty data – the data has been submitted and should be populated within the next 2 weeks. 

Professional Development- to make it easier for your teachers and staff to learn more about myON and how to get your students on the system,  we have recorded the  “Getting Started with myON” webinar.  Once you click on the webinar link, you will have to register your name and e-mail address, and you can get started.  Please send out to all of your staff that will be using myON for the remainder of the school year and the summer.  If the recorded webinar does not fit your needs at your school , please reach out to Darren or I and we can either come onsite or do a webinar for your team as well.  I have also attached 2 documents that are really important for your team to have as well. The 1st document is the summer implementation checklist, and the 2nd document will give you step by step instructions on how to create projects.   Click here for the documents.

myON Professional Services Portal-  this is an additional resource that comes to your school district at no charge for the summer.    Our Professional Services area is filled with Videos (helpful to show  your students), teacher quick reference cards, project based units, family literacy night events, as well as document on our summer reading contest.

Media Monday: Summer Reading through myON & PD Opportunity


Summer Reading!


As the end of the year approaches, we begin to think about the summer. June Atkinson, our state Superintendent has sent a letter regarding the "Give Five, Read Five" program where schools collect books to send home with students to read over the summer.  This year there is a new component to this initiative called myON reader provided by Capstone.  This online reader gives students access to digital content over the summer.  We have signed up and are working to create the accounts for all K-5 Students, there will be a future blog post with directions for accessing.  However, I wanted to give you a heads up so you could begin to consider how you will share this information with your staff and students.  Here is the link to the list of books titles that have been shared with me if you would like to look at them.  If any Middle School or High School would like to participate as well, just let me know by Friday, April 22.
Check out this great opportunity coming next week: Creating a Global Media Center from World View.  If you can't make that one, there are others in the summer to explore.


April is School Library Media Month - this is a great time to share with your staff what your vision of your program and all the great things happening in your media center! Thanks for all you do!

Happy Monday!
