"If A is success in
life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and
z is keeping your mouth shut."
Albert Einstein
"Don't say things.
What you are stands over you the while, and thunders so that I
cannot hear what you say to the contrary."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"A classic is
something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to
read."

Using the Computer to Create Big Books
What
better way to motivate young children to read than to create class
books. Now the teacher and students can go a step further to create
electronic books that can be stored on the class computer or on
CD's. Students will read these books over and over again because
they helped to create the books.
For older students this idea can be used for book reports or
to advertise books in the school's media center. Take the idea
of electronic books and use it to best meet student needs.
Please review the electronic books created by CCSD teachers:
