myON Questons

Do you have questions about myON or want to know how you can keep using it past the free trial period that ends August 31? We'd love to talk with you more about myON and what it can do for your school and your students. Please feel free to reach out to Terre Bommarito and she'd be happy to come talk to your staff and principals about it.

March Madness Scavenger Hunt

The Sweet Sixteen...the Elite Eight...the Big Dance! Yep, March Madness is in full swing!  Did you fill out your bracket yet?  Who do you have in your Final Four?

This is a great time to have your students practice using the search tab in their myON libraries with this scavenger hunt.  Make it fun and interactive while teaching the students how to search for books.

March Madness Scavenger Hunt
Use the search tab in your myON library to find some great books about basketball.

1.  Type Basketball in the search tab.  How many books will you find?
2.  Type in College Basketball and click the fiction button.  List 2 books that you find.
3.  Find one basketball book that is a third grade book. What is the name of the book?
4.  Can you find any basketball books written in Spanish? If so, write the title of one of the books.
5.  Search and find the book "Wacky Basketball Trivia". What is the recommended grade level
     for this book? Who is the author?
7.  Find the book "The Final Four".  Save it to your favorites.
8.  Look for a fiction book about basketball.  What is the audio time of the book?  What is the page
     count?  What is the average rating of the book?
9.  Use the story type search button to see if you can find books about basketball in all 4 types of
     books (short, medium, long and epic).
10. Find a book about basketball that is on your Lexile level. Read the book and when you are        
      finished write a review and take the quiz.
