ccpsmediaspecialists Reading Program, Renaissance

If a teacher is not listed within the myON user list, verify the teacher meets the criteria listed below:

Is the teacher a Language Arts teacher assigned to student schedules?

  • Only teachers assigned to student schedules in Infinite Campus have a roster in myON and access to myON.

Does the teacher’s class have myON assigned?

  • From the Renaissance Home page, select Courses and Classes.
  • In the Actions column on the right, click Assign Products next to the appropriate course.
  • Locate the teacher’s class. If no products are assigned, check the box next to myON.
  • Check the box next to each class you want those products assigned to. (To select all classes, check the box next to the Class column heading)
  • Click Assign and click Done.

Has the teacher logged into Renaissance and clicked the MyOn link?

  • Teachers must login to Renaissance and click the myON link to be added to the myON user list.

Readbox

ccpsmediaspecialists Ideas, Reading Program

The goal of a Readbox is to build our students’ personal libraries by providing them with free books. Often, students earn a book from the Readbox as part of a school’s independent reading program. By rewarding reading with reading, students are provided continuous opportunities to practice their literacy skills.

Ideally, a Readbox should:

  • be located in the Media Center or a common location accessible to all students
  • feature books that are available free of charge
  • display a description of how the Readbox works
  • include books that are labeled inside to indicate the materials are not library books and the books can be kept by the student
  • provide students an opportunity to self-select books of interest

Readbox Examples:

 

Reading Rewards Card

Encourage your students to checkout and read more often with a rewards card. Below are three styles you can edit and use with your students. For best results:

  • Download the card that most closely matches your independent reading program goals.
  • Edit the school name on each card.
  • If desired, change the squares to more closely match your independent reading program goals.
  • Print the cards on color card stock paper for attractiveness and durability.
  • Print and attach patron barcode labels for each card.
  • Laminate the cards for added durability.
  • Purchase a sturdy hole punch – maybe even one in the shape of a star.
