Students are provided with multiple research tools including web-based encyclopedias and scholarly search engines.<\/p>\n<p>Our library curriculum includes technology, research, and digital citizenship taught through a variety of tools. Students are taught to use iPads, Chromebooks, and laptop computers. \u00a0They are exposed to educational apps and creative resources online. Of course they also learn about the parts of books, authors, research strategies, and note taking.<\/p>\n<p>Students have the opportunity to participate in district and state Battle of the Books at both the elementary and middle-school levels, English Festival, and other reading competitions. They also participate in many national activities such as Hour of Code and Six Flags Read to Succeed.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alarms.org\/kidrex\/\">KidRex<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.juniorsafesearch.com\/\">GoogleJunior<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.abcya.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Educational Games K-5<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.netsmartz.org\/Parents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NetSmartz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.citationmachine.net\/\">Citation Machine<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.petethecatbooks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pete the Cat<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.funbrain.com\/\">Funbrain<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/studio.code.org\/s\/course1\/stage\/3\/puzzle\/1\">Jigsaw<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Insects:<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.everythingabout.net\/articles\/biology\/animals\/arthropods\/insects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Everything About Insects<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biokids.umich.edu\/critters\/Insecta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BioKIDS<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/packs.eb.com\/resourcepacks#\/\">Britannica Digital Learning<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Primary Sources:<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dp.la\/primary-source-sets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Digital Public Library of America<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mrs-lodges-library.com\/play-shelver\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shelving Practice<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.airpano.ru\/files\/Egypt-Cairo-Pyramids\/2-2\">Egypt Virtual Tour<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Counseling<\/h2>\n<p>Videos that will change your life: <a href=\"https:\/\/safeshare.tv\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DPT-HBl2TVtI\">I have no words<\/a> (4:35)<\/p>\n<p>A great everybody book read aloud online through a video: <a href=\"https:\/\/safeshare.tv\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Det4KluESo0o\">Kindness is Cooler Mrs. Ruler by Margery Cuyler<\/a> (9:27)<\/p>\n<p>A song titled <a href=\"https:\/\/safeshare.tv\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D1yLg1nPua0k\">&#8220;All About Kindness&#8221;<\/a> (2:40)<\/p>\n<p>Kindness Rhyme for Kids &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/safeshare.tv\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Do8Q9wB0XmYw\">You are Amazing<\/a> (2:54)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet Your Library Media Teacher: Rita Wagner rwagner@kusd.edu KUSD Virtual Library Students have access to a continually growing collection of books. \u00a0Aside from traditional books, we offer many digital resources [&#8230;]\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":25611,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-16","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27041,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16\/revisions\/27041"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25611"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/lakeviewk-8\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
