Best Nonfiction Books Of The Decade
All Saints Destiny Quest /Follett App
Even when school is out, students can continue to search for resources . The All Saints school community can remotely access the school library collection 24/7.
Destiny Discover offers All Saints students a collection of Ebook titles. Students can access these Ebooks on any internet-enabled device (phone, iPad, PC). Access allows students to “browse” the books online for up to 15 minutes (without checking out), or you can check out your book just as you would any print format book. The Ebook will automatically be returned in 14 days. Checking the book out ensures that you can access the book online at anytime, or you can download it for reading later in Follett’s offline reader.
Students 5th through 8th grade have Ebook accounts. Also, check out this video for DESTINY QUEST!

Accelerated Reader Program
The Accelerated Reader Program is a computerized reading enrichment program. Students have the option to read a book and then take a computer quiz that is given in a multiple-choice format to assist in developing comprehension skills. Students will have remote access to take AR quizzes on campus and at home.
How Does The Library Facilitate The AR Program?
Free Children's Nonfiction Books Online
This year the library will initiate an optional reading program for 2nd-8th graders called “BookFlix”…Be A Binge Reader! The idea is to enter readers into a raffle prize drawing every two weeks for those students that take and pass at least one AR quiz during the allotted time period. One winner will be chosen from each grade 2nd-8th (not class) for a sanitized bookmark, special pencil, pen, etc. that has been quarantined in a plastic bag.
