myON is essentially an online library which has some additional tools. It will be the main source of reading material for home and school use.
myON is from Renaissance Learning, the same company that provides Accelerated Reader, a program that has been used in school for a number of years. myON has some integration with Accelerated Reader and Star Reading which is used to help select books at an appropriate level.
Please take some time to look at the Parent Information Sheet and the introductory video. Please take some time to connect Star Reader Scores.
It would also be useful to download the App and set up access on as many devices as possible to ensure easy access.
During the next week or two, it would be really helpful if everyone becomes familiar with the books that are available. Begin to read some books and start to add to the “list” of books you would like to read.
Try the audio function with some books and try just reading others and see your time spent reading add up. Take some quizzes!
Integrate myON into your daily routine!

Enjoy!
