The SchoolRooms team of experts has created a room specifically for summer reading activities.
To access the virtual room, users visit http://scsl.schoolrooms.net and select the Summer Reading Room link listed in the left Explore a Room column. The room has everything from arts projects to insect games available for students to access. All of the rooms have many activities for students and project ideas for teachers as well as librarians working with youth. SchoolRooms is a new K-12 online multimedia discovery place for South Carolina students. SchoolRooms provides resources, built around South Carolina school curricula, to assist students with homework and school projects. Search your library’s catalog, educational websites, and selected DISCUS databases all at once. Designed not just for students, SchoolRooms includes practical and relevant guides to assist parents, educators, and librarians. This resource is available at libraries and from home, using a simple e-registration form available at the web site http://scsl.schoolrooms.net. The South Carolina State Library is working with public libraries to make SchoolRooms available to all South Carolina citizens by Fall 2008. |
